Eagles block Lions’ request to interview special teams coordinator Dave Fipp

As the Eagles look to name their own head coach, another franchise is looking to nab one of their veteran coaches.

Philadelphia has blocked the Lions from interviewing special teams coach Dave Fipp for a position on the staff of new head coach Dan Campbell, according to Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press.

Fipp remains under contract with the Eagles and he could land on the staff of the next head coach hired by Jeffrey Lurie.

Fipp and Campbell worked together with the Dolphins in 2011 and 2012.
