Bradley is the architect of one of the most tough, physical defenses in the NFL. The Seahawks ranked first in points allowed this season and fourth in yards allowed. Bradley has been the Seahawks' defensive coordinator since 2009. Last year, Bradley guided the second-youngest team in the NFL to a top-10 finish in multiple categories including: points allowed, fewest touchdowns allowed, second half points allowed and takeaways. In his first year as coordinator in 2009, the Seahawks posted two shutouts at home.
The Seahawks are in Atlanta to take on the Falcons in the Divisional Round of the playoffs on Sunday. If the Eagles want to conduct a second interview or hire Bradley, they will have to wait until Seattle is eliminated from the playoffs.
The San Diego Chargers interviewed Bradley on Thursday.
