Vic Fangio ‘pleased’ with Eagles, doesn’t want to be head coach again

Several former NFL coaches’ names came up in connection with the league’s opener this week, but Vic Fangio was not one of them.

Fangio is in his first season as the Eagles’ defensive coordinator and the team finished second in the league in points allowed while winning the NFC East. They finished 30th in 2023, the kind of turnaround that often leads to talk of moving up the coaching ladder.

That sound wasn’t there for Fangi, who went 19-30 in three years as the Broncos’ coach. On Tuesday, he said he was fine with that when asked if he wanted a second chance at the top spot.

“No, I’m happy to be here right now,” Fangio said via the team transcript.

The improvement on the field from last year means the Eagles are happy to have Fangio there as well and it sounds like everyone is happy to move forward with the current arrangement.
