The Vic Fangio doghouse is very real. Just ask Philadelphia Eagles defensive back Cooper DeJean.
Was DeJean one of the Eagles’ best 11 players on defense entering the 2024 season? Of course he was. But he picked up an unfortunate hamstring injury while training in Iowa over the summer, was limited to individual drills at the beginning of training camp, and wound up waiting until Week 6 of the regular season to log his first NFL start.
That’s what you can expect from Fangio, whose old-school approach as defensive coordinator served the Eagles well in 2024.
