NFL Notes: Chip Kelly, Los Angeles, Bills, Giants, & Jaguars

Chip Kelly

Eagles HC Chip Kelly tells Peter King of MMQB that he intends to “see through” his commitment to the team.

“I made a commitment to this organization when they hired me, and I will see it through,” Kelly said.

Kelly admits there will be skeptics regarding what he’s trying to accomplish in Philadelphia.

“I don’t have to convince people I’m staying,” Kelly told King. “I can’t. Everyone says, ‘He’s a college guy.’ It’s going to take a while for people to look at the ticker across the bottom of the screen without my name on it for people to understand.”

Los Angeles

• Jason Cole of B/R reports that Rams HC Jeff Fisher and Chargers HC Mike McCoy could survive another season, given that their teams could be relocated to Los Angeles.

• In the end, Cole believes both coaches could retain their jobs for another year or two.

Bills
