Report: Eagles Coaches Jumping Ship to Chip Kelly’s 49ers

And so it begins. Chip Kelly was hired earlier in the week by the San Francisco 49ers. It hasn’t taken very long for him to take a coach of the Eagles away from the team to bring him on board to Chip’s 49ers.

According to FOX Sports reporter Alex Marvez, the 49ers are hiring Eagles’ wide receivers coach Bob Bicknell for the same position.

I know Bicknell isn’t a big name and won’t be a huge loss for the Eagles. He joins defensive line coach Jerry Azzinaro and quarterbacks coach Ryan Day in flying the coop.
