Report: Gus Bradley May Become the Eagles Head Coach Today
Howard Eskin, who’s had several Twitter boners over the past few weeks, tweeted late last night that Gus Bradley will be coming to Philly today, perhaps to finalize a deal with the Eagles.
Eskin, aggregated:
"[Head coach] situation is crazy. Source just told me Gus Bradley coming to Phila to finalize deal. Think Eagles could have coach in 24 hrs. Crazy. Think Eagles [head coach] could obviously have come down to Whisenhut and Bradley. Nothing done but source: finalizing deal with Bradley. [We’ll see.] Tuesday could be BIG sports day in Phila. Maybe new Eagles [head coach] by end of day and maybe Giroux as new Flyers. Two BIG stories. [Maybe.]"
See, I don’t get why naming a new captain is such a big deal. Sure, it’d be an honor for Giroux, and that C looks pretty nice on his sweater… but with the way the media has been treating it this past week, you would think that G was going to be knighted or something. Plus, being captain didn’t end so well for the last few guys (well…).
Back to the Eagles: Eskin originally had Reid buying a house in Arizona… and we know how that worked out. So we’ll take this with a grain of salt for now. But Gus Bradley, a defensive guy, may be your Eagles coach by the end of the day.
