The Facts: The Vikings are hiring former Eagles' QB coach John DeFilippo as their OC, a source tells ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Diehards Line: DeFilippo is the replacement for Pat Shurmur, who became the Giants head coach two weeks ago. The Vikings interviewed DeFilippo for the job on Thursday. DeFilippo’s contract has expired, allowing him to take an assistant-coaching position with another team. He had interviewed for the head-coaching job in Arizona last month, and he had been linked to other vacancies. As Profootballtalk.com suggests, the Eagles may end up losing both DeFilippo and offensive coordinator Frank Reich, who is a candidate to become the next coach of the Colts. Some believed that the Eagles hoped to keep DeFilippo as the offensive coordinator, if Reich were to leave. Moving forward, the man in charge of an Eagles quarterback room that featured potential regular season MVP Carson Wentz and Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles will have a hand in deciding who his next signal caller will be: Will it be Case Keenum, Sam Bradford or perhaps Teddy Bridgewater? We'll be watching for more on that.
