Super Bowl, NFL coaching live updates: Chiefs, Eagles arrive in New Orleans

The Super Bowl LIX matchup is set: the Philadelphia Eagles will take on the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans on Sunday, Feb 9. The Eagles dispatched the Washington Commanders easily in a 55-23 win in the NFC championship game, while the Chiefs and Buffalo Bills went down to the wire in a thrilling AFC championship game that Kansas City won 32-29.

Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs will aim to make history in New Orleans as they go for their third straight Super Bowl win, something that’s never been done before. The last team to win back-to-back Super Bowls was the 2003 and 2004 New England Patriots. Tom Brady went to 10 Super Bowls as a player, but this time he’ll be in the booth, broadcasting his first Super Bowl for Fox in his new role.

Elsewhere in the NFL, teams have been busy filling their head-coaching vacancies, with Ben Johnson (Bears), Aaron Glenn (Jets), Liam Coen (Jaguars), Brian Schottenheimer (Cowboys) and Pete Caroll (Raiders) locking down jobs. The Saints have the last open job, and they’ve interviewed a variety of candidates.

Follow along with all the news and updates ahead of Super Bowl LIX below:

    Jets hiring Tanner Engstrand as OC away from Lions: Report

    New Jets head coach Aaron Glenn is bringing a fellow Lions assistant with him. Tanner Engstrand will be Glenn’s offensive coordinator, the team announced on Friday.

    Engstrand, 42, was Detroit’s passing game coordinator for the past two seasons after coaching quality control and tight ends. He was believed to be a candidate for the Lions OC opening before Dan Campbell hired John Morton for that position this week.

    This season, the Lions had the second-best passing offense in the NFL with 4,474 yards, averaging 263.2 yards per game.

    Prior to joining Detroit, Engstand was the offensive coordinator for the XFL’s DC Defenders.

    The Jets will have weapons to work with, including receivers Garrett Wilson, running back Breece Hall and a veteran offensive line. But quarterback is a big question, in addition to whether or not Davante Adams returns.

  • Why are the Saints struggling to find a head coach?

  • Should the Super Bowl trophy be re-named after Tom Brady?

    Bill Belichick is over the Lombardi Trophy.

    Instead, the longtime New England Patriots head coach wants it renamed to honor the quarterback with whom he won six trophies.

    Belichick, now the head coach at North Carolina, proposed the idea of renaming the iconic Super Bowl trophy after Tom Brady on the “Let’s Go!” podcast this week. Brady won seven Super Bowl rings throughout his career, six of which were with Belichick in New England.

    “Maybe they should name it the Brady trophy,” Belichick said. “He won seven of them.”

  • Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury takes himself out of contention for Saints’ job

    Kliff Kingsbury has reportedly decided to not pursue an NFL head coaching job for next season. The Commanders offensive coordinator did not accept any interview requests during this hiring cycle and had Washington reached the Super Bowl he would not have been able to interview until after the season ended.

    Following the Commanders’ loss to the Eagles in the NFC championship game, Kingsbury became eligible for interviews.

    The Saints, who had requested to speak to Kingsbury earlier this month, are the only NFL team without a head coach.

    “I didn’t get into this to be a head coach again,” Kingsbury told ESPN last month. “It’s not about money. It never has been about money. So, that won’t move me at all. It’s just I want to do the best job we can here for those guys and then kind of go from there.”

    He was then the head coach of the Colts for six seasons from 2012-17. After that, Pagano served as defensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears in 2019 and 2020. He’s been out of the NFL since.

    The Ravens announced the news Tuesday night.
