The hits just keep on coming for the Philadelphia Eagles and their offensive coordinator coaching search.
The Athletic's Dianna Russini is now reporting that the Eagles are moving forward with the idea that their top candidate for the offensive coordinator job search, Brian Daboll, is going to gun for the Buffalo Bills head coaching job. If Daboll is not going to get the Bills' head coaching job, then the next option is taking the Tennessee Titans' offensive coordinator job.
While the idea of Daboll wanting the Bills' head coach job is not a surprise, it appears as though the former New York Giants head coach would rather coach a second-year quarterback in Cam Ward and new head coach Robert Saleh than join an established Eagles job. Daboll was seen as a favorite since he had a previous working relationship with Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley.
What is next for the Eagles in the OC search?
If fans are being blunt, this is a bad look for the Eagles, as now two of the top offensive coordinators are out on the Eagles. Mike McDaniel chose the Los Angeles Chargers' offensive coordinator job, and now Daboll is looking at either the Bills' head coach job or the Titans' offensive coordinator job.
There have been candidates who have already interviewed for the job, including Zac Robinson and Mike Kafka, but they don't have the same pedigree as Daboll and McDaniel. This is now becoming a stressful situation for fans to know who will take the job.
Now, the biggest name out there for an offensive coordinator job is former Washington Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury. This one might work out okay for the Eagles, as Kingsbury was a finalist for the job before taking the Commanders' offensive coordinator job.

The question now is whether Kingsbury would come back for another interview or even if the Eagles would consider him. Otherwise, there's going to be a lot of noise out of Philly about what the plan is at offensive coordinator.
