Jeremy Fowler of ESPN reports that the Eagles are set to interview former Jaguars DC Mike Caldwell for their defensive coordinator vacancy.
Fowler notes that the Raiders also have interest in Caldwell for a senior defensive role.
Caldwell, 51, is a former third-round pick of the Browns back in 1993. He played 10 seasons in the NFL for the Browns, Ravens, Cardinals, Eagles, Bears and Panthers.
Caldwell took his first coaching job with the Eagles in 2008 as a defensive quality control coach. From there, he worked for the Cardinals and Jets before the Buccaneers hired him as their inside linebackers coach in 2019.
From there, the Jaguars hired Caldwell as their defensive coordinator for the 2022 season. Jacksonville fired Caldwell after the 2023 season.
In 2023, the Jaguars defense ranked No. 22 in fewest yards allowed, No. 17 in fewest points allowed, No. 9 in fewest rushing yards allowed and No. 26 in fewest passing yards allowed.
