Bennie Logan: Chip Kelly 'Seems Like He Really Wants To Be An Eagle'

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- After it was reported that Chip Kelly met with the Eagles to address reports of him leaving the team, Kelly clarified that he did not call a meeting to address his job status, but mentioned it to draw a comparison between perception and reality.

On Wednesday, Eagles defensive lineman Bennie Logan was a guest on The Josh Innes Show and he shared his account of what Kelly told the team about his future in Philadelphia.

"[Kelly] was like, you're going to hear outside talk about this and that," Logan said. "He's a Philadelphia Eagle. He's here for the long-run."

Logan explained that the team cannot focus on what might happen with their coach and that their attention has to stay on the task at hand.

"Right now he's with the Eagles and we're going to finish the season with him and what he do after that, I mean, that's on him, but he seems like he really wants to be an Eagle."
