Mon, 30 Apr 2012 07:43:23 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the team used high draft picks on DL Fletcher Cox and LB Mychal Kendricks in order to rush the quarterback. "It is (all about the pass), yeah," Reid said. "With the college kids and the offenses that these guys are running (in college), they're throwing the football and the ball is in the air. That's eventually going to carry over to our league. You're seeing that now."

Thu, 08 Mar 2012 09:35:05 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the team will not be pursuing free-agent QB Peyton Manning (Colts), as they are happy with QB Michael Vick as their starter. "We're obviously happy with Michael (Vick)," Reid said. "You could ask that question of probably everybody in the National Football League except the Giants, right? ... That's not something we're - we're happy with Michael."
Mon, 27 Feb 2012 07:17:12 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid would consider trading QB Michael Vick for Baylor QB Robert Griffin III straight up.

Reid added if Spagnuolo came on board, defensive coordinator Juan Castillo would have remained with the team.
Tue, 31 Jan 2012 09:48:35 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said he is optimistic about the 2012 season and as a result, did not want to shuffle his coaching staff too much. Reid confirmed he will retain defensive coordinator Juan Castillo. "I saw us get better," Reid said, when asked about the job Castillo did in 2011. "We had some moving parts on the defensive side, I understood that."
Tue, 03 Jan 2012 12:22:24 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles chairman Jeffrey Lurie said Tuesday, Jan. 3, that head coach Andy Reid will return for the 2012 season.
Sat, 24 Dec 2011 21:17:02 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid picked up his 17th career win against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. Reid's win total is more than any coach in NFL history against the Cowboys.
Thu, 08 Dec 2011 06:26:17 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the reasons for the team's struggles this season are due to turnovers in the red zone and penalties. He declined to get into specifics about the reasons behind the turnovers.
Thu, 08 Dec 2011 06:23:39 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said no one from the team's front office has approached him about firing defensive coordinator Juan Castillo to save his own job. Reid said everything remains focused on this season and getting better.
Wed, 07 Dec 2011 07:35:02 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said that winning with a team built on youth takes time, even though the Eagles were considered by many as Super Bowl favorites before the season. "If you stay in one place long enough, age catches all players no matter how great they are; they're going to outplay their career and you've got to rebuild it," Reid said. "We're going through that. You look down the middle of our defense and we are young, young. People perceive us to be an old football team, but we're really not an old football team. We're one of the youngest teams in the (NFL). That takes time." The average age of the Eagles' 53-man roster is 25.8 years.
Fri, 02 Dec 2011 21:03:19 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said Friday, Dec. 2, that he remains focused on getting better and isn't worried about his job security despite a 4-8 record. Reid is in his 13th season as head coach of the Eagles, and he has two years remaining on his contract.
Fri, 02 Dec 2011 08:44:01 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick has a fully guaranteed base salary of $12.5 million in 2012. So unless he is traded, which appears unlikely, the Eagles are stuck with Vick. Head coach Andy Reid's ability in 2010 to get the most out of Vick will make it more likely that Reid and Vick will be together again in 2012.
Fri, 02 Dec 2011 05:25:12 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles RB LeSean McCoy believes head coach Andy Reid will not be fired at season's end. "Andy's not going nowhere," McCoy said. "As a team we know (Reid will be back). We have a lot of trust in him, a lot of faith in him, and the franchise does too. They know they have a good coach. If you ask around the league, he's by far one of the top coaches in this league."
Mon, 28 Nov 2011 06:22:21 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles fans were chanting "Fire Andy" in reference to head coach Andy Reid in Week 12. Reid said following the game he did not hear the chants; however, he is not surprised by the reaction. "I didn't hear them," Reid said of the chants. "The way we played I can understand it."
Mon, 07 Nov 2011 23:02:05 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid coached his 200th regular season game in Week 9 against the Chicago Bears, becoming the 31st head coach in NFL history to reach that plateau. He is the 13th coach to do so with just one franchise.
Mon, 31 Oct 2011 11:23:36 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said he has not changed his philosophy on running the football, and the team plans to continue making that a big focus, especially if the team is ahead in the game. "We haven't changed. Whatever works we're going to do. The better you can mix it, the better off you're going to be. If you get a lead, you're going to end up running the ball a little more. Just how it ended up working out. Philosophy hasn't changed," Reid said.
Mon, 31 Oct 2011 05:36:39 -0700 The Philadelphia Eagles remain perfect after their bye week under head coach Andy Reid. Since he became coach in 1999, the Eagles are 13-0 in games the week after a bye.
Wed, 12 Oct 2011 19:12:12 -0700 Updating a previous report, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid was adamant Wednesday, Oct. 12, that the team is not looking for a defensive consultant to work with embattled defensive coordinator Juan Castillo. "There was no defensive consultant thing," Reid said. "Nothing. Zero. I haven't talked to anybody."
Tue, 11 Oct 2011 07:24:38 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid has engaged in discussions with the team's front office on whether to bring in a defensive consultant if the team continues its struggles in Week 6 against the Washington Redskins, according to sources. The team has a bye week following the game and Reid is seeking solutions that can help defensive coordinator Juan Castillo in his first year, the sources said. However, Reid, through a team spokesman, said Tuesday, Oct. 11, he was not hiring a defensive consultant and wanted to note that fixing 12 turnovers generated by the offense in four straight losses was a high priority.
Mon, 10 Oct 2011 06:48:32 -0700 The questions surrounding Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid's job security have begun following a 1-4 start to the season. Reid, however, is not concerned with the speculation. "All I'm concerned about is that next game, man. That's all I care about," Reid said. "That's the only thing that I can control is getting this football team better, getting myself better and getting the coaches better. That's all I care about."
Mon, 26 Sep 2011 09:04:46 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said Monday, Sept. 26, that tests showed that QB Michael Vick (hand) does not have a fractured right hand. Instead, he appears to be dealing with swelling from a contusion. Reid said Vick will be monitored over the next several days but the swelling has to come down before he will be cleared. Fantasy Tip: Watch Vick's status throughout the week. It is his right, non-throwing hand, so the only thing he will have to deal with is pain when he takes a snap. The Eagles could use a lot of shotgun to help lessen the snapping action on his hand.
Mon, 19 Sep 2011 10:01:22 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said Monday, Sept. 19, he would not reveal who will start at quarterback in Week 3 if QB Michael Vick (concussion) can't play. QB Vince Young (hamstring) has been slowed by a sore hamstring, but Reid said he's almost 100 percent.
Tue, 31 May 2011 07:40:15 -0700 The Philadelphia Eagles appear committed to trading QB Kevin Kolb when the lockout ends, and head coach Andy Reid said recently that he has enough faith in QB Mike Kafka to hand him the backup job. "I always have confidence in myself. But if Coach says that, it's great," Kafka said. "I'm willing and waiting to take that next step to be that guy." Kafka may have to wait another year, however. If the Eagles do indeed trade Kolb, they may prefer to add a veteran instead of promoting Kafka, who didn't take a single snap last season. There's also the possibility that the Eagles won't be able to deal Kolb.
Fri, 27 May 2011 06:45:33 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles QB Kevin Kolb said he texted head coach Andy Reid during the brief thaw in the NFL lockout last month, and Reid said he will do what's best for Kolb. "He does that for all his players and all his coaches," Kolb said. "That's what makes him great, that's why he's been around as long as any coach that's coaching right now." Reid has made it clear he intends to trade Kolb, but the NFL lockout has stymied that effort.
Thu, 28 Apr 2011 07:54:54 -0700 The Philadelphia Eagles hold the No. 23 overall pick in the NFL Draft, but they could finish someplace else. Head coach Andy Reid has moved either up or down in six of the last eight drafts, including last year, when he moved up 11 spots to take DL Brandon Graham at No. 13.
Fri, 18 Mar 2011 08:03:26 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the team will sit back this offseason and listen to all trade offers for QB Kevin Kolb, according to Paul Domowitch, of the Philadelphia Daily News. "People have shown a little interest (in Kolb), and as this thing picks up, I'm sure it will continue," Reid said. "Listen, we'll sit back and we'll evaluate." Reid added, however, that he still likes Kolb and is not opposed to keeping him. "He's ours," Reid said. "Everything else from there is easy. It's kind of like what I said last year. If people are interested, they'll come to you. But on the other hand, do we love Kevin Kolb? Are you kidding me? I mean, this guy is a helluva football player."
Mon, 07 Feb 2011 07:53:03 -0800 The Philadelphia Eagles issued a statement Monday, Feb. 7, ending speculation that head coach Andy Reid would be replaced by Jon Gruden. "Early this morning we have received several inquiries regarding the rumors regarding Andy Reid and Jon Gruden. This was simply a rumor and there is no basis to it at all. It is simply not true," the team said.
Fri, 28 Jan 2011 06:04:04 -0800 Contrary to reports, former Tennessee Titans head coach Jeff Fisher will not be joining the Philadelphia Eagles coaching staff as defensive coordinator, according to league sources, reports Jeff McLane, of the Philadelphia Inquirer. According to ESPN, head coach Andy Reid had informed candidates that the vacancy at coordinator had been filled, and that Fisher would likely be the defensive coordinator in Philadelphia. Those statements were not true, according to the sources. As of Thursday, Jan. 27, the Eagles had interviewed only one candidate for the job: New Orleans Saints assistant Dennis Allen, who ended up taking the coordinator's job with the Denver Broncos. The Eagles are likely waiting to interview one or more assistants from the Green Bay Packers or Pittsburgh Steelers after the Super Bowl.
Thu, 09 Dec 2010 21:59:11 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick, head coach Andy Reid and teammates are expressing concerns that other teams aren't being penalized for what they perceive to be illegal hits to the Eagles quarterback, reports Rob Maaddi, of The Associated Press. "It really ticks me off that Mike (Vick) is getting all those hits," S Quintin Mikell added. "When we played the (New York) Giants, it seemed like any time anyone got near QB Eli Manning, they were ready to call it. It shouldn't be like that."
Mon, 29 Nov 2010 07:18:43 -0800 Multiple Philadelphia Eagles players who did not want to be identified said head coach Andy Reid was bothered by WR DeSean Jackson's attitude before and during Week 12 and ripped into him in front of the team, according to Geoff Mosher, of The News Journal. Jackson, visibly distraught at his locker after the game, was consoled by several teammates, including QB Michael Vick.
Thu, 25 Nov 2010 07:07:13 -0800 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said the issue of dealing with the contract situation of QB Michael Vick will be dealt with at the appropriate time, according to Jonathan Tamari, of the Philadelphia Inquirer. However, the team has been limited by uncertainty over the NFL's labor dispute. "There'll be a time and a place (the contract) needs to be addressed and we'll address it," Reid said. "It's a crazy deal with the collective bargaining agreement … we really haven't done anything with anybody, it's just a different year here."
Tue, 26 Oct 2010 07:22:33 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said Monday, Oct. 25, on his radio show that WR DeSean Jackson (concussion) passed his post-concussion test, according to Jeff McLane, of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Jackson has a chance to play in the team's Nov. 7 game.
Mon, 18 Oct 2010 06:50:24 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid said it was his decision to allow QB Michael Vick (rib) to arrive only 45 minutes before game time in Week 6, according to Jeff McLane and Jonathan Tamari, of the Philadelphia Inquirer. "I told him to be here at 12:15 p.m., and he showed up at 12:15," Reid said when pressed about the issue. "That was it. Don't worry about it. Enjoy the win." Vick was not on the field for warm-ups and was not seen after the game, although the Eagles insisted he had been dressed and present. A number of Eagles players said they had seen him before the game and at halftime. Because Vick was still not completely healed from his rib-cartilage injury, Reid said, he had no intention of playing Vick even though he was the No. 3 quarterback.
Mon, 11 Oct 2010 06:45:18 -0700 Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid improved his record to 6-1 against the San Francisco 49ers following the team's Week 5 win and has now won six consecutive games against the NFC West.

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 18:02:07 -0800 Jeff McLane, of the Philadelphia Inquirer, reports Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid was not happy about New York Giants S Aaron Ross giving Eagles WR DeSean Jackson ahead butt Week 14. Ross didn't draw a penalty, but replays clearly showed him hitting Jackson in the face mask with his helmet after an incomplete pass. Reid said he had a clear view of the play. Reid thinks the league will make sure the play does not go unnoticed.

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 06:57:05 -0700 Les Bowen, of the Philadelphia Daily News, reports Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid defended the use of the wildcat formation during the team's Week 2 game. "Whatever term you want to give the thing, it averaged 5.7 yards per carry and was very productive," Reid said, cutting off a question that was going to be about whether the team may use the wildcat more, with QB Michael Vick in the mix. "I think we had five first downs with it."
