The Eagles could end up moving on from Doug Pederson after all.
According to an ESPN report, Pederson’s future with the team is not “firm”, and a change could still be coming, depending on how the next meeting between the two sides goes.
What will happen to Pederson remains to be seen, but if the Eagles do move on from him, here are 11 potential replacements they might have interest in:
Brian Daboll, OC, Buffalo Bills: Daboll has taken Josh Allen and turned him from an inaccurate, average quarterback to an MVP candidate. Jeffrey Lurie will likely have Daboll high on his list of candidates to try to fix Carson Wentz.
Lincoln Riley, HC, Oklahoma: Would Lurie go back into the college game after the Chip Kelly debacle? It is possible, especially if he believes in Jalen Hurts — Riley’s college quarterback — as his answer moving forward.
Eric Bieniemy, OC, Kansas City Chief: Perhaps the most qualified coaching candidate out there after overseeing an explosive Chiefs offense. The question is whether the Eagles are too late into the process to get Bieniemy.
Pep Hamilton, QB Coach, Los Angeles Chargers: Hamilton helped turn Justin Herbert into one of the best young quarterback in the game. Lurie has shown he likes to hire former quarterback coaches.
James Urban, QB Coach, Baltimore: Lurie tried to hire Urban last offseason as the team’s offensive coordinator.
Arthur Smith, OC, Tennessee Titans: Smith, like Daboll, has helped take an offense with an average quarterback (Ryan Tannehill) and turned it into an explosive one.
Robert Saleh, DC, San Francisco 49ers: It is unlikely the Eagles would hire a defensive head coach, but the pairing of Saleh and a bright-offensive mind at offensive coordinator could be appealing to Lurie.
Joe Brady, OC, Carolina Panthers: One of the hottest names in the NFL on the offensive side of the ball. Hiring him now, at just 31-years old, could be too early — but if Lurie doesn’t do it now, he might not get another chance.
