@caplannfl: Kelly will now oversee the player personnel department. He will also lead efforts to hire a new personnel executive.
Howard Roseman will oversee the rest of the GM duties but Chip is in charge of the players.
@caplannfl: Roseman’s role: continue directing contract negotiations, salary cap management, and NFL strategic matters…
@caplannfl: …while overseeing the team’s medical staff, equipment staff and more.
In the Eagles reshuffling of titles, Chip Kelly will have the reigns of draft control. Howie Roseman gets promotion and lengthy extension.
