The Eagles' search goes on.

After Tom Coughlin reportedly told the Eagles he was no longer interested in their head coaching job, ESPN's Adam Schefter is reporting that the team is now expected to target Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Doug Pederson.

PLUS: Coughlin made the right decision

The Eagles interviewed Pederson last Sunday, one day after his team beat the Houston Texans in an AFC wild card game.

Pederson has not interviewed with any other teams.

Pederson has plenty of history with the team, as he played quarterback for them during the 1999 season, and was the team's quarterbacks coach from 2011-2012.

After leaving the Eagles, Pederson followed Andy Reid to Kansas City, where he became the offensive coordinator.

Pederson's close ties to the organization, and Reid giving him a stamp of approval to owner Jeffrey Lurie, could be enough to land him the job.
