NEW ORLEANS — Vic Fangio lounged on a white couch with his girlfriend, Kathy Maruyama, nestled to his side in a quieter room across from the main stage at the Eagles’ Super Bowl LIX victory party.

Super Bowl LIX is in the books, and the Philadelphia Eagles defeated ... A defense run by former Dolphins coordinator Vic Fangio. Fangio was the Defensive Coordinator in Miami in 2023.

Vic Fangio was named as a finalist for the AP's Assistant Coach of the Year Award. He didn't win, but he's still the winner in every Eagles fans' heart.
