Syracuse head coach Doug Marrone stands on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange in a pre-Pinstripe Bowl event. Marrone's name has been thrown around as a candidate for multiple NFL head coaching jobs.

Doug Marrone’s interviews are continuing to pile up.

The Syracuse head coach has already interviewed with the Browns and Bills this week. But the Philadelphia Daily News reported Saturday that Marrone will meet with the Eagles this weekend in Arizona, and CBS Sports’ Jason LaCanfora tweeted that the San Diego Chargers, who fired their head coach Norv Turner on Monday, are also interested in meeting with Marrone.

 

 

Among the coaches Marrone is competing against for these jobs is another college coach looking to transition to the NFL. Oregon head coach Chip Kelly, who led the Ducks to a win over Kansas State in the Fiesta Bowl on Thursday, met with Cleveland on Friday and will reportedly interview with the Bills and Eagles this weekend.

Mary Kay Cabot of the Cleveland Plain Dealer tweeted Saturday that the Browns were impressed with Marrone after their interview with the Orange head coach.

 

 

Marrone coached in the NFL for seven seasons, including three as the offensive coordinator for the New Orleans Saints before taking the head coaching job at Syracuse.
