Eagles’ regular season countdown: Every player to wear No. 93 for Philadelphia

With Eagles training camp quickly approaching, we’re looking at every player to wear the No. 95 for Philadelphia

The Philadelphia Eagles will kick off their 2023 regular season against the New England Patriots on Sept. 10, now 77 days away.

From now until the start of the season, we’ll be counting down each day by revisiting the players who have worn that specific jersey number.

No. 93 is worn by third-year defensive tackle Milton Williams, who’ll look for double-digit sacks for the second straight year.

With less than 90 days until kickoff, here’s a look at every player to ever wear No. 93 for the Eagles (via Pro Football Reference):

10 former Jaguars on 2024 College Football Hall of Fame ballot

Paul Posluszny, Kevin Hardy, and eight other former Jaguars players are among the nominees for the College Football Hall of Fame.

The College Football Hall of Fame released its list of candidates for the Class of 2024 and the Jacksonville Jaguars are well-represented on the ballot.

Ten players who spent time with Jacksonville during their respective NFL careers are among the list of nominees (years with Jaguars):

  • Aaron Beasley, cornerback, West Virginia (1996-2001)
  • Justin Blackmon, wide receiver, Oklahoma State (2012-2013)
  • Marco Coleman, defensive end, Georgia Tech (2002)
  • Jarett Dillard, wide receiver, Rice (2009-2011)
  • Vaughn Dunbar, running back, Indiana (1995)
  • Deon Figures, cornerback, Colorado (1997-1998)
  • Toby Gerhart, running back, Stanford (2014-2015)
  • Kevin Hardy, linebacker, Illinois (1996-2001)
  • John Jurkovic, defensive end, Eastern Illinois (1996-1998)
  • Paul Posluszny, linebacker, Penn State (2011-2017)

The 18 players inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame last year included Tim Tebow, a former Denver Broncos and New York Jets quarterback who spent one offseason at tight end with the Jaguars.

Beasley, Blackmon, Dillard, and Hardy were all drafted by the Jaguars. Posluszny stands as the franchise’s all-time leading tackler and Beasley is second in team history in interceptions.

Voting for the Class of 2024 will happen through the remainder of June, but the inductees won’t be announced until January of next year.

MSU DL coach Marco Coleman reportedly leaving Spartans for Georgia Tech

It appears there will be at least one notable shakeup on the Michigan State football coaching staff

It appears there will be at least one notable shakeup on the Michigan State football coaching staff.

Kelly Quinlan of JacketsOnline is reporting that Michigan State defensive lineman coach Marco Coleman is leaving the Spartans to return to Georgia Tech. No formal announcement has been made by Michigan State football at the publishing time of this post.

Coleman spent one season as Michigan State’s defensive lineman coach after joining the Spartans’ coaching staff before the 2022 season. He was previously at Georgia Tech from 2019 – 2021 under previous head coach Geoff Collins.

Coleman played his college ball at Georgia Tech so there are obvious ties to the Yellow Jackets that make this move not shocking. However, it’s not an ideal loss for the Spartans with Coleman appearing to be a solid position coach and strong recruiter for Michigan State.

[mm-video type=video id=01fv10p9fkjajfvgh0ak playlist_id=01eqbz825g32p3akwt player_id=none image=https://images2.minutemediacdn.com/image/upload/video/thumbnail/mmplus/01fv10p9fkjajfvgh0ak/01fv10p9fkjajfvgh0ak-817cf77a741c5df9af42ca4fc765f321.jpg]

Michigan State football has officially hired Marco Coleman as its new defensive line coach and run game coordinator.

The Spartans announced the hiring on Wednesday, but the news of Coleman joining the staff had been reported last week. He will replace former longtime assistant Ron Burton in coaching the defensive line.

Coleman played his college ball at Georgia Tech before having a 14-year NFL career. Following his playing career, Coleman served as the assistant defensive line coach with the Oakland Raiders in 2018, and has spent the past three seasons at Georgia Tech as the outside linebackers and defensive ends coach.

Report: Michigan State football tabs Marco Coleman as new DL coach

It appears that MSU has its new defensive line coach and it is a longtime NFL veteran

Michigan State and former MSU defensive line coach Ron Burton mutually agreed to part ways earlier this offseason, leaving a vacancy on the Michigan State coaching staff. That vacancy has reportedly been filled by Marco Coleman, who will take over as the Spartans new defensive line coach.

Coleman is a native of Dayton, Ohio, and played his college football at Georgia Tech. After a successful college career, Coleman would get drafted in the first round of the NFL Draft before going on to have a successful 14-year career in the league. His NFL career totaled him 520 tackles, 65.5 sacks and 18 forced fumbles.

Following his playing career, Coleman has taken up a strong interest in coaching and has built up a solid resume to bring to East Lansing with him. In 2018, Coleman served as the assistant defensive line coach with the Oakland Raiders. After that, Coleman would go home to his alma mater and spent the past 3 seasons at Georgia Tech as the outside linebackers and defensive ends coach.

Mel Tucker made the move to pry Coleman away from his alma mater and come to East Lansing as their new DL coach.
