Report: Redskins' Gray in line to coach Memphis

Washington Redskins secondary coach Jerry Gray is reportedly in line to take over as the next head football coach at the University of Memphis.

Memphis fired Tommy West on November 9, but he's going to finish out the season. The Tigers, who are 2-9, conclude the dismal campaign at Tulsa Friday afternoon.

The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports Gray interviewed for the position Tuesday and is emerging as the leading candidate to replace West. LSU assistant Larry Porter, a former Memphis running back, is also reportedly in the running for the job. Porter interviewed Friday, according to the newspaper.

Saints' Williams returns to his old stomping ground

Double G is coming back. And he has an ax to grind.

Gregg Williams , the fiery assistant who got a pink slip instead of a promotion from the Washington Redskins nearly two years ago, will return today as defensive coordinator of unbeaten New Orleans.

"He wants to win first," Redskins cornerback Carlos Rogers said last week, "but he wants to prove to this organization that he still should be here."

Former Redskins coach Zorn is new Ravens QBs coach

Former Washington Redskins head coach Jim Zorn has been hired by the Baltimore Ravens to be their quarterbacks coach.

Zorn was fired earlier this month by the Redskins after two seasons as their head coach. Washington was 8-8 in his first year but slumped to 4-12 this season.

Eagles down Redskins, 27-17

Sherm Lewis might want to go back to bingo. Or, better yet, he might want to apply for a job as the Philadelphia Eagles' play caller -- it's a much easier job with someone such as DeSean Jackson on your side.

Jackson scored on a 67-yard reverse and caught a 57-yard touchdown pass in the first half, and the Eagles converted three turnovers into points Monday night in a 27-17 win over the Washington Redskins.

Nearly all the scoring came in the first half of an injury-filled game -- Philadelphia's Brian Westbrook (concussion) and Washington's Chris Cooley (right ankle) left early and didn't return. The win got the Eagles (4-2) back to form after last week's jarring loss to the Oakland Raiders.
