NFL Today | Please dont ruin Trent's career by hiring Kelly.

 Kelly had a long meeting with Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and CEO Joe Banner on Friday in Arizona, and a source told Rapoport the sides were very close to a deal. Kelly then met with the Eagles on Saturday in a discussion that lasted several hours, bumping a scheduled follow-up meeting with the Browns in the process. Rapoport reported Sunday that the Browns were rebooting their search, and Kelly told the Eagles later in the day that he was staying at Oregon

Rapoport reported Sunday that Oregon booster and Nike co-founder Phil Knight made a strong push to keep Kelly with the Ducks, according to a source with knowledge of the process. It is believed Knight's sway played a substantial role in Kelly's decision.

If Kelly tests the waters again in 2014, it will be interesting to see if NFL teams pursue him with the same vigor shown in Cleveland and Philadelphia this time around. Prying Kelly from Oregon has become a "Mission: Impossible" scenario for NFL teams.




Kelly's agent, David Dunn declined to comment when asked by USA TODAY Sports about Kelly's situation.


The Browns seemingly couldn't wait for Kelly. ESPN reported they were restarting their coaching search. Cleveland also lost out on Syracuse's Doug Marrone, whom the Buffalo Bills hired Sunday.




Actually Chip Kelly not coming to Philadelphia Eagles or anywhere else in the NFL, according to reports .

The Eagles confirmed they met with Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Mike McCoy and will interview Seattle Seahawks defensive coordinator Gus Bradley and Colts offensive coordinator Bruce Arians
