Philadelphia Eagles' interest in hiring Tom Coughlin as coach intensifies
  • 8 years ago
With the coaching carousel spinning faster, the Philadelphia Eagles now have turned their attention squarely to former New York Giants coach Tom Coughlin to fill their vacancy, league sources told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Thursday.
The two sides have had intensified conversations since Wednesday night, sources told Schefter.
The San Francisco 49ers also have shown interest in Coughlin, though that would require a cross-country move away from where his family currently lives.
Coughlin feels he has two to three years left as a coach and wants to win right away, a source told Graziano.
The Eagles have been seeking a replacement for Chip Kelly, who was fired five days before Philadelphia's season-ending victory over Coughlin and the Giants.
