The week that followed was filled with rumored candidates, interviews and the letdown of Chip Kelly returning to Oregon.
With Kelly off the market, the Eagles have turned to Cincinnati Bengals offensive coordinator Jay Gruden and Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley, both of whom have been given permission to interview for the job.
Bruce Arians, who served as the interim head coach for the Indianapolis Colts in Chuck Pagano's absence, is also considered to be a candidate for the position.
Among the other candidates who have interviewed is Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Mike Nolan, who has previous head coaching experience with the San Francisco 49ers.
The Eagles are also rumored to be interested in Penn State head coach and former New England Patriots offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien, though his hefty contract buyout could be an issue.
