Flipping through TV channels this morning and I see this Dallas Cowboys/Tom Brady story popping up on the debate shows.
You can source the topic to Michael Irvin, who went on Boston sports radio station WEEI and told a couple of guys name “Dale and Keefe” about a scenario in which Dallas pursues Brady and decides to use the franchise tag to move Dak Prescott instead:
*Not as players, but in assistant and consultant roles, according to the Birds, who put out a press release this afternoon announcing changes to the football operations department:
The Barwin news had been reported some time ago, that he was going to be involved with the front office in some fashion. Washburn was rumored to be the assistant defensive line coach, but instead ends up with the role of “Director of Player Personnel/Senior Defensive Assistant.” Celek and Sproles get “consultant” gigs, which are always very vague, but those guys were both respected veterans, so surely they’ll provide positive input moving forward.
Here are the bios for Hunkele and Rath:
This is the behind-the-scenes series crews were filming all year long down at NovaCare.
It’s officially out now, and accompanied by this preview via the Eagles Twitter account:

Straight from the team, via press release, here are the changes to the coaching staff:
The biggest takeaway, as I’m sure you’ve been reading about, is that the Eagles will go without a traditional offensive coordinator this year. They will have Scangarello, a former Denver OC, join a game-planning group that now includes a promoted Press Taylor. Doug Pederson continues to call the plays, as he always has, but they get the fresh perspective or “outside voice” in Scangarello, so that box is checked. The optics of solely promoting from within would have been a little bit iffy, especially since they just did that with Mike Groh and Carson Walch, who were both fired.
Jimmy Kempski over at Philly Voice first on this jawn:
According to a source, the Philadelphia Eagles are hiring Aaron Moorehead to be their wide receivers coach. Moorehead was the wide receivers coach for Vanderbilt, and previously coached wide receivers at Texas A&M and Virginia Tech.
Like Doug Pederson — and many of Pederson’s other coaching hires over the years — Moorehead was a former player in the NFL. He was an undrafted free agent out of Illinois in 2003 and had 85 catches for 1,293 yards and nine touchdowns in five seasons with the Indianapolis Colts.
Also reported by John Clark, Dave Zangaro, and others.
Travis Kelce went with a WWE promo-styled speech at the Chiefs’ Super Bowl parade on Wednesday. He appeared to be significantly intoxicated.
It was pretty good, but it wasn’t Jason Kelce good. The bar was raised way too high for him, but he did a nice job here:

Imagine if this happened in Philadelphia.
Per Tom Pelissero:
The #Eagles are adding passing game coordinator to QB coach Press Taylor’s title, source said. A promotion for a bright young assistant.

What does this actually mean?
