As the team racks up draft capital over the next three years , another question is emerging from Davis being traded — could this move imply a new regime for the defense? Specifically, could the move indicate there's potential for Jim Schwartz to return to Philly?
According to Eagles beat reporter Jeff McLane , the team had privately reached out to Jim Schwartz earlier in the year when DC Vic Fangio was contemplating retirement. Moving on from Davis could indicate Fangio is once again considering walking away, and Schwartz's scheme and personnel needs may already be impacting the Eagles' roster-building decisions.
Even former Eagles legend Brandon Graham spoke about the possibility of Schwartz returning to Philly on the PHLY post-game show — right next to BGN's Brandon Lee Gowton —, saying that they have the guys his former DC would be able to maximize.
There hasn't been anything to suggest that the Eagles would move on from Vic Fangio unless the legendary defensive coordinator decides to retire, but if he's given the team any indication that's his plan, they might be planning for a future with a familiar face.
Here are some other reactions from the surprising trade:
