Last week, the Eagles wouldn’t let the Eagles interview special teams coordinator Dave Fipp, but the hiring of a new head coach in Philadelphia appears to have led to a change of mind when it comes to Fipp.
Dave Birkett from Detroit Free Press reports that the Lions are now expected to hire Fipp to lead special teams on the staff of head coach Dan Campbell. He joins assistant head coach / running backs coach Duce Staley as coaches moving from the Eagles to Lions this offseason.
Fipp has been with the Eagles since 2013 and worked with Chip Kelly and Doug Pederson during that time. He was an assistant special teams coach with the Dolphins in 2011 and 2012 when Campbell was the team’s tight ends coach.
Hiring Fipp would fill all three Lions staff coordinator positions. Former Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn will lead the attack and former Saints defensive back coach Aaron Glenn will be in charge on the other side.
