We updated this post with instant reaction from Chip Kelly in regards to Dean Blandino’s comments of Sugg’s hit on Bradford not being illegal. Well, there’s a lot more where that came from.
Now here are some quotes and video of Chip’s presser earlier today.
Chip Kelly: We don't run as much zone read as everyone thinks. I think the interpretation of the Suggs play on the field was correct.

Kelly said that he has not talked with the league about the play. Reiterated that it was not a read-option play. Every team has shotgun runs

Kelly said that Bradford was not going anywhere on the play and he handed off the ball.

Kelly: We're going to run the same offense that we did with Nick Foles.

Kelly said that no designed runs were called for Bradford. If they really want to protect Bradford, they have to put him in a glass case

Kelly said that Dean Blandino sends a video to coaches each week explaining different calls.

UPDATE: Darren Sproles said the play was a read option, whereas Mark Sanchez says it wasn’t. UH OHS.
