Report: Eagles, Coughlin To Have 'In-Depth' Meeting Today
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Adam Gase, Hue Jackson, and now -- reportedly -- Ben McAdoo are off the market. Now, the Philadelphia Eagles shift their attention to former New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin, according to multiple reports.
First, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the Eagles' increasing interest in Coughlin.

NFL.com's Ian Rapoport says the 69-year-old two-time Super Bowl winning head coach will have an in-depth face-to-face meeting with the Eagles on Thursday.
My understanding is the #Eagles are set for a face-to-face meeting with Tom Coughlin today. Should be a lot more in-depth than last time.

There are "ongoing discussions" between Tom Coughlin and the #Eagles as we speak. Some questions to answer. But they are far down the line.

It looks like Coughlin, Doug Pederson, and Pat Shurmur are three finalists to become the next Eagles' head coach. Pederson, currently the offensive coordinator of the Kansas City Chiefs, faces the New England Patriots in the AFC Divisional playoffs on Saturday.
