Pretty much confirming that the Eagles will switch to a 3-4 defense this year, Chip Kelly will bring on Billy Davis as defensive coordinator, according to CSN’s Geoff Mosher:

Veteran defensive coach Billy Davis, who’s had stints coaching with the Panthers, Browns, Packers, Falcons, Giants, 49ers, Cards and Browns, will be the Eagles’ next defensive coordinator, a league source said Thursday morning.  

 

Davis doesn’t exactly have a great track record. In his four years as a defensive coordinator (2005-2006 with the 49ers and 2009-2010 with the Cardinals), his defenses ranked 32nd, 26th, 14th and 31st in yards, and 30th, 24th, 11th, and t-26th in points. Fun.
