Eagles News: No head coaching job for Doug Pederson?

What happened to Doug Pederson’s head coaching hopes? - NBCSP
It does seem like teams are leaning toward current hot coordinators as opposed to former head coaches in their searches. For instance, the Broncos interviewed 10 candidates before hiring Hackett, and only one was a former head coach, Dan Quinn. The Texans have interviewed seven candidates and Brian Flores was the only former head coach. Quinn was also the only former head coach the Dolphins met with. Of the 68 known interviews for the various openings, only 23 have gone to former NFL head coaches: Quinn with five teams, Todd Bowles with four, Leslie Frazier and Flores with three each, Dennis Allen, Caldwell and Pederson with two and Vance Joseph and Bill O’Brien one apiece.
