7 possible candidates for DC position if Eagles part ways with Jim Schwartz

5. Ron Rivera — unemployed

On Tuesday, the Carolina Panthers fired Rivera in the middle of his ninth season with the team. Rivera led the Panthers to four playoff appearances, three NFC South titles, and one trip to the Super Bowl. He’s likely to be a hot candidate for any open head coaching position but would be the perfect guy to replace Schwartz if Pederson made a move.
