I have been told #Eagles head coach Chip Kelly has expressed interest in getting out of his contract.

 

He's the one who reported that Tom Gamble was out before it happened. If Michigan didn't get Harbaugh (moot point anyway), Chip Kelly would've been a HR Plan B candidate hire.

I believe thar Chip Kelly and Tom Gamble were pretty tight and worked well together, or so I had heard. Not sure why the Eagles would fire someone like that and then put themselves in a position to lose one of the more innovative, exciting coaches out there. They really must not appreciate how great this hire really was for them and what he has brought to them. It will be interesting to see if he does leave.

Update: Eagles promoted Roseman and Kelly. 

 

Now Kelly is GM and coach. Roseman is in charge of salary cap issues. 

 

Eagles are all in on Kelly's vision. Let's see what he can do!
