A half hour ago it was a rumor and now it's a reality. The Eagles have officially announced that they've hired Johnnie Lynn as their secondary/cornerbacks coach. For more on Lynn, check out the post just below, but the short story is that he brings a ton of experience both as a player and coach to the Eagles defensive staff.

The team also moved a number of other pieces around on the staff promoting Duce Staley to special teams quality control coach, promoting James Urban to assistant offensive coordinator, David Culley to senior offensive assistant/WR coach, Doug Pederson was hired as QB coach and Bobby April Jr. was hired as a defensive quality control coach.
