Former Cowboys DC to join Eagles

ESPN's Matt Mosley is reporting that former Cowboys defensive coordinator Brian Stewart will soon join the Eagles' coaching staff.

Stewart was the the defensive coordinator in Dallas under Wade Phillips when the Cowboys went 13-3 in 2007, but he was stripped of his play-calling duties midway through the '08 season.

Phillips fired Stewart a few days after the team's humiliating 44-6 loss to the Eagles.

Eagles head coach Andy Reid and Stewart have remained close since they were at Northern Arizona together in the mid-80s.
