EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — It’s likely that few days in John DeFilippo’s life will ever be as wild as Thursday was.
When the 39-year-old woke up, he was the Eagles quarterbacks coach headed to celebrate Philadelphia’s Super Bowl LII win with a championship parade.
And by the time he went to sleep, DeFilippo was the new Vikings Offensive Coordinator.
“It was an unbelievable day,” said DeFilippo, who was announced as Minnesota’s offensive coordinator on Friday morning. “How many guys can say they participated in a Super Bowl parade in the morning, and then became one of 32 play-callers in the National Football League that night?
