One NFL playoff team could be the perfect landing spot for Bill Belichick but it looks like they have zero interest in making that happen.

The Philadelphia Eagles don’t currently have an opening for head coach with Nick Sirianni still holding the title, but judging by how the fan base feels, they would love for him to be gone. If the team does decide to move on from Sirianni after their late-season collapse, there’s at least one person who doesn’t believe Bill Belichick will be considered.

The last-season struggles and embarrassing playoff exit have turned up the heat on Sirianni’s coaching seat, but a person close to the team does not think the team will bring a former Patriots coach to the franchise.

Howard Eskin, a talk show host and sideline reporter on Eagles broadcasts, reported Philadelphia is not expected to be interested in Belichick and it has everything to do with how the owner feels.

“I can tell you this for a fact, Jeff Lurie is not a fan of Belicheat,” Eskin said of the Eagles owner on SportsRadio 94WIP, as transcribed by Dov Kleiman. “I can tell you that. I know that.

“I am positive that the owner is not a big fan, he’s not a big fan. He’s (Belichick) not the guy.”

Making fun of his name is a clear reference to the off-field controversies Belichick was involved in during his time with the New England Patriots.

Last week, Belichick and the Patriots parted ways after 24 years and six Super Bowl titles. They failed to get seven after New England lost to the Eagles in Super Bowl LII.
