Former Eagles' great Duce Staley fired as RB coach by Panthers

[Philly Man]

The impact of Frank Reich’s firing is starting to trickle down to the coaching staff, as Duce Staley was fired as assistant head coach/ running backs coach according to Tom Pelissero. A former Eagles running back and assistant coach, Staley left Dan Campbell’s staff in Detroit to join Frank Reich in Carolina. The #Panthers also fired QB coach Josh McCown and assistant head coach/RB coach Duce Staley, per sources. — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) November 27, 2023 Panthers owner David Tepper fired Reich on Monday morning, less than 24 hours after the owner left the locker room muttering an expletive following Sunday’s 17-10 loss to the Tennessee Titans in Nashville. Special teams coach Chris Tabor has been appointed as interim head coach, while offensive coordinator Thomas Brown will assume playcalling duties with help from senior assistant Jim Caldwell. Tabor and Caldwell made the call to relieve Staley and quarterbacks coach Josh McCown of their duties. Reich’s tenure at Carolina ended with an NFL-worst 1-10 record — including an 0-6 mark on the road. He also becomes the first NFL head coach since the 1970 merger to be fired in back-to-back seasons after last year’s dismissal from the Colts. Email Sign up Like this article?
