The Eagles have fired Chip Kelly. Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie released a statement saying the Kelly and Vice President of Player Personnel Ed Marynowitz were released. Pat Shurmer will be interim head coach for the season finale against the Giant. Here is the full statement on the Eagles website.

“Today, Jeffrey Lurie, Chairman and CEO of the Philadelphia Eagles, released Head Coach Chip Kelly.
“We appreciate all the contributions that Chip Kelly made and wish him every success going forward,” said Lurie.
Coach Pat Shurmur will be interim head coach for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants.
Ed Marynowitz, vice president of player personnel, was also released. Tom Donahoe, former GM of the Buffalo Bills and director of football operations for the Pittsburgh Steelers and senior football advisor for the Eagles since 2012, will assume the role of senior director of player personnel.
A press conference will be held Wednesday, December 30 at the NovaCare Complex at Noon with Lurie.”

 Considering the off season power struggle, and the bad personnel moves it was to be expected, maybe a game earlier than expected.
