Report: Eagles will hire Jonathan Gannon as Nick Sirianni’s defensive coordinator

The Philadelphia Eagles have yet to officially confirm Nick Sirianni as their new head coach — that’ll likely take place early this coming week — but we’re already hearing some news about his staff.

Some Clown Named Mike Lombardi reports the Eagles are hiring Indianapolis Colts defensive backs/cornerbacks coach Jonathan Gannon as Sirianni’s defensive coordinator.

Albert Breer says a deal isn’t done yet but Philly is “the clear favorite” to land him. Breer previously indicated Gannon to the Eagles was likely if they hired either Sirianni or Josh McDaniels as their head coach.
