He isn’t on anyone’s radar to take over as head coach, but even though he had a ton of support in the Eagles organization, including quite a bit from current players and coaches, one has to wonder if he feels like he’s reached his ceiling in this organization despite being a part of the last three coaching regimes. If his dream is to be an NFL head coach, he may have to leave the team he loves in order to do so.
