The Philadelphia Eagles are rewarding head coach Doug Pederson and general manager Howie Roseman with contract extensions through the 2022 season, per ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Roseman and Pederson constructed a dominant Eagles team that won their first Super Bowl in franchise history last season, defeating the New England Patriots 41-33. And with the team built to compete for several more championships in the immediate future, Pederson and Roseman were more than deserving of their extensions.

Pederson's NFL coaching career began in 2009, when the Eagles hired him as their offensive quality control coach. Pederson was moved to quarterbacks coach in 2011, a role he would keep for two years.

The Eagles then fired Andy Reid, who became the new head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013. Reid brought Pederson in to serve as his offensive coordinator. But after Philly fired Chip Kelly, Pederson was brought back to Philadelphia as their new head coach for the 2016 season.

As for Roseman, he became the Eagles' general manager for the 2010 season, and kept the job until 2014. However, the Eagles stripped him of the gig and moved Roseman to Executive VP of Football Operations, though he was later moved back to the general manager job.

Roseman has had incredible success in drafting, trading and free agency since taking over in the front office. He made a bold decision to trade up and land quarterback Carson Wentz with the second overall pick in 2016. Besides that, Roseman brought back quarterback Nick Foles, who wound up leading the team to a Super Bowl 52 championship.

The Eagles have a dynamic core led by Wentz, Foles, Alshon Jeffery, Jay Ajayi, Fletcher Cox and Brandon Graham. After decades of misery, this team came through to win its very first Super Bowl. Thus, the long-term extensions for both Roseman and Peterson were well-deserved.
