BREAKING: Giants to promote McAdoo to Head Coach, per report

15829847-standard

The plot continues to thicken in Philadelphia. After a day of major outlets and reputable sources claiming that Giants Offensive Coordinator Ben McAdoo is the front runner in the race to become Head Coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, this happened.

Yup….now just to clarify that this is not official as of yet but there have been reports that suggest both NFC East teams could well have their new Head Coach within the next 24-48 hours which would only solidify this report from NFL Insider Ian Rapoport.

The news first broke after a source told  ESPN’s Dan Graziano that McAdoo and the Giants were close to a deal. If this is indeed true, it leaves the Eagles with minimal candidates who have been interviewed:

Pat Shurmur
Duce Staley
Doug Pederson
Tom Coughlin

It will be interesting to see where this goes..
