Ex-Eagles OL Coach Jeff Stoutland Will Not Coach In 2026

By | at February 5, 2026 1:10 pm

On Wednesday, the NFL world found out that legendary Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland would not be coaching in Philadelphia next season. We now know (via ESPN’s Tim McManus) that he does not intend to coach at all in 2026.

The Eagles wanted to keep Stoutland in place under new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, but he declined their offer. If he was interested in other jobs, he would have become the hottest commodity on the coaching market. While most teams already have their offensive line coach for 2026 in place, Stoutland could have easily become a senior offensive assistant or run game coordinator on any number of staffs.

Instead, he will take a year away from coaching after more than four decades with various college and NFL teams that featured two Super Bowl rings and two BCS National Championships.

Stoutland is leaving Philadelphia after a rocky 2025 season for the Eagles offense. After three straight years as a top-10 unit, they fell back to 19th in points and 24th in yards. Head coach Nick Sirianni and offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo worked to diversify the run game, but did so in such a manner that encroached on Stoutland’s role as run game coordinator.

Then, after firing Patullo, the Eagles hired Sean Mannion as their new offensive coordinator. He spent time under both Kyle Shanahan and Sean McVay and will bring their schemes to Philadelphia. Stoutland does not have as much experience with those systems.

Those factors contributed to Stoutland’s growing discomfort in Philadelphia and eventual departure. However, he does not plan to retire and could becoming one of the most sought-after assistants in the NFL next hiring cycle.

Eagles Remove Kevin Patullo From OC Role

By | at January 13, 2026 11:00 pm

Another offseason, another Eagles offensive coordinator change. After an inconsistent season, Philadelphia is moving on from OC Kevin Patullo, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

After a wild-card loss to a shorthanded 49ers team, it is certainly not surprising the Eagles are making another change. This marks the second time in three offseasons Nick Sirianni has pulled the plug on an OC. Patullo, though, has been with Sirianni since their days in Indianapolis. Promoted to OC in 2025, Patullo struggled to lead an offense with considerable talent.

Sirianni may not be ready to remove Patullo from his staff entirely, however. It is possible the assistant stays on staff in a different role, NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo adds. It is not certain this happens, with Garafolo noting talks are upcoming about Sirianni and Patullo staying together. Patullo has coached with Sirianni since Frank Reich‘s 2018 arrival in Indianapolis.

“I have decided to make a make a change at offensive coordinator,” Sirianni said (via The Athletic’s Zach Berman). “I met with Kevin today to discuss the difficult decision, as he is a great coach who has my utmost respect. He has been integral to this team’s success over the last five years. Not only to the on-field product but behind the scenes as a valued leader for our players and organization. I have no doubt he will continue to have a successful coaching career.”

The Eagles will be searching for their fifth OC in the Sirianni era. Shane Steichen held the role for two seasons but joined the Colts as HC in 2023. Sirianni promoted QBs coach Brian Johnson to fill the role. Johnson struggled, and the Eagles collapsed in 2023. He ended up fired, leading to Kellen Moore coming in and reestablishing his stock. Moore did well enough during a dominant Eagles Super Bowl-winning season that he landed the Saints’ HC job. This led to Sirianni promoting Patullo from pass-game coordinator to OC. Like Johnson, this promotion did not yield consistently good results.

Rumblings about a potential change began weeks ago. Patullo memorably saw his house egged during a trying season in the OC role. Sirianni is an offense-oriented HC, but he has not called plays since giving the reins to Steichen midway through his rookie season in Philly. But Sirianni began to take a bigger role in the offense late in the season. Although the end result was not as bad as the 2023 nosedive, the Eagles could not find a spark ahead of a wild-card home loss.

Patullo, 44, had not called plays at any level previously. Save for a one-off stay at Texas A&M (2017), he has been in the NFL since 2007. The former Chiefs, Bills, Titans, Jets and Colts assistant had been the Eagles’ pass-game coordinator for four seasons. Sirianni promoted Johnson over Patullo in 2023 but opted to give the OC gig to his longtime coworker last year. The Eagles dropped from seventh to 19th in scoring offense and from eighth to 24th in yardage between the 2024 and ’25 seasons. Philly ranked 19th in EPA per drive. Like 2023, infighting emerged ahead of a playoff one-and-done.

While Lane Johnson‘s late-season absence proved pivotal, Patullo never seemed especially comfortable at the wheel. Saquon Barkley stayed healthy all season but fell well off his stratospheric 2024 pace, finishing with 1,140 rushing yards. The Eagles ranked 18th in rushing, completing that descent months after making Barkley the NFL’s first $20MM-per-year running back. Philly’s Jalen Hurts-led passing attack ranked 23rd. A.J. Brown grumbling took place once again, but unlike in 2024, the Eagles could not offset pass-game inconsistency with Barkley dominance to stabilize their offense.

Given the success Steichen and Moore achieved compared to Sirianni’s promoted OCs, it would stand to reason the next Eagles play-caller will come from outside the organization. Sirianni had been rumored to be on the hot seat when he fired Johnson, but after the 2024 Eagles zoomed to a Super Bowl title, the HC received an extension and is in no danger of losing his job now. But a key retooling measure is coming.

While Brown trade rumors figure to pick up again soon — as Sirianni and the team’s top wideout had a memorable run-in following a Brown drop in the 49ers matchup — the Eagles should still return plenty of talent on offense to make this job attractive.

Nick Sirianni To Remain More Involved With Eagles Offense

By | at December 10, 2025 11:56 am

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni has become more involved with the team’s struggling offense in recent weeks amid a rash of poor play.

Sirianni’s involvement has included more time at the head of offensive meetings, per ESPN’s Tim McManus, though offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo still runs them and has play-calling responsibilities.

“I’m the head coach, so my attention goes to places that I feel like it needs to go,” Sirianni said after Monday night’s loss to the Chargers (via Pro Football Talk’s Myles Simmons). “This week was with the offense, and I’ll continue to go in there with those guys and grind it out through the weeds with them and continue to move forward with that.”

Given how the Eagles offense performed against the Chargers, it is unclear if the extra attention from Sirianni helped. Despite a defense that forced three turnovers and only allowed 106 net passing yards, Philadelphia could only muster 19 points in the overtime loss. Quarterback Jalen Hurts threw four interceptions, including one that led to the Chargers’ game-winning score. On another play, Hurts was credited with both an interception and a fumble, a first in NFL history.

In general, the sixth-year quarterback has been an inconsistent passer and an ineffective rusher this season. The former has held back the Eagles’ air attack, while the latter has allowed opposing defenses to smother Saquon Barkley.

Despite Hurts’ pedigree – which includes a Super Bowl MVP won this calendar year – there is already chatter around his future in Philadelphia. The Eagles first drafted Hurts on Day 2 to replace Carson Wentz when he was no longer worth his contract. Now, half a decade later, general manager Howie Roseman could be considering a similar decision, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler. A new QB would not be a sure thing, but the Eagles’ stacked roster means they could afford to take a Day 2 shot on another cheap, young passer. Once he is ready to take over, the team could trade Hurts for draft capital, and continue to invest heavily in other parts of their roster

Eagles Shifting Blame Away From OC Kevin Patullo

By | at December 6, 2025 9:45 pm

9:45pm: Sirianni has taken on a larger role in offensive meetings this week, ESPN’s Tim McManus reports. Patullo has also been present, but it will be interesting to see if a heavier hand on the part of the head coach will yield the desired results against the Chargers. If not, the Eagles’ dynamic on that side of the ball will no doubt remain a major talking point.

2:28pm: Coming out of their Week 6 bye, the Eagles felt good about their season, winning two more games against some top competition in the NFC right out the gates, but concerns were really starting to build amidst some struggles on offense. Naturally, much of the initial external blame fell to offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, but head coach Nick Sirianni was quick to defend the first-time play-caller.

Sirianni has reportedly not been alone in his support of the first-year coordinator. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, even recently challenging wide receiver A.J. Brown has stood up, vocally, behind Patullo. When asked if a coaching change might improve the team’s recent offensive struggles, Brown called it a “crazy question.” Staying in line with the veteran receiver, the sentiment appears to be constant throughout the locker room, as Garafolo claims to see no signs of mutiny from the players.

Instead, the team has had a series of what they’ve called “no-BS discussions” in anticipation for a Monday night trip to Los Angeles, per Dianna Russini of The Athletic. The objective of these meetings has been to put an end to the blame game, to “stop pointing fingers.” Instead of pinning fault solely on missed throws from quarterback Jalen Hurts, the health and execution of the offensive line, careless, undisciplined penalties negating big plays, or simply, the play calling from Patullo, the team has been forced to reckon with the fact that all of these issues plaguing the reigning Super Bowl champions have jointly contributed to the offensive struggles amidst this two-game slide.

In addition to some group accountability, Sirianni hinted that actual adjustments are still happening behind the scenes. “Everything was being evaluated,” the head coach told media earlier this week (via Zach Berman of The Athletic). “We’ll think about some different things, what we want to do, scheme, everything.” The fifth-year skipper declined to go into detail on just what adjustments fans may expect to see, claiming that it probably wouldn’t “benefit” him to share.

It remains to be seen whether or not these adjustments or the team’s ability to hold everyone accountable will improve an offense that ranks 20th in points scored, 24th in total yards, and 22nd in rushing yards after ranking seventh, eighth, and second, respectively, in those categories last year. After this week’s showdown with the Chargers, a trip to Buffalo remains the only true test as a home matchup against the Raiders and a home-and-home with the Commanders should give Philadelphia a decent opportunity to get into a rhythm before the postseason.

Nick Sirianni Backs Kevin Patullo, Will Not Change Offensive Play-Caller

By | at November 29, 2025 9:19 pm

Despite the Eagles’ offensive woes, head coach Nick Sirianni has no intention of taking play-calling duties away from OC Kevin Patullo.

“We’re not changing the play caller, but we will evaluate everything,” Sirianni said after Philadelphia’s 24-15 loss to the Bears (via Zach Berman of The Athletic). “It’s never just about one person. You win as a team, you lose as a team, and you try to evaluate everything, win, lose or draw and get better from it.”

But Eagles fans do not agree. Chants of “Fire Kevin” rang out at Lincoln Financial Field on Friday as Philadelphia’s offense converted only four of their 12 third downs and turned the ball over twice. The Bears finished with a massive advantage in rushing yards (281-87), number of plays (85-51), and time of possession (39:18-20:42). But Sirianni does not think Patullo is the problem.

“I know it will keep coming back to Kevin, but again, if I thought it was one thing, then you make those changes,” Sirianni said. “Obviously, it’s a lot of different things, but I don’t think it is Kevin. Now, we all have a part in it. Kevin has a part of it. I have a part of it. All the coaches have a part of it. All the players have a part of it.”

However, Patullo’s offense is the Eagles’ worst in years. Currently, the unit are ranked 19th in points and 24th in total yards, which would be the franchise’s worst finishes since 2020. That, of course, was Doug Pederson‘s last year in Philadelphia before Sirianni took over the top job. In other words, this is the Eagles’ least productive offense in the Sirianni era.

Patullo is also the Eagles’ fourth coordinator in four years. After running Sirianni’s offense for the first two years of his tenure, Shane Steichen took the Colts’ head coaching job in 2023 and was replaced by Brian Johnson. But Johnson’s offense sputtered in the second half of the season and only put up nine points in a wild card loss to the Buccaneers. Kellen Moore took over in 2024, and he put together a dominant offense that fueled the Eagles’ playoff run, especially in the NFC Championship Game and the Super Bowl. He was hired as the Saints’ next head coach, and Patullo was promoted from pass game coordinator to OC.

As a result, Sirianni may be hoping that he can weather the storm with Patullo in the hopes that the 44-year-old coach can bounce back by the rest of the season. That would prevent Sirianni from finding another offensive coordinator and, ideally, allow Patullo to learn from his initial mistakes and put together a stronger campaign next year.

Eagles Promote Kevin Patullo To OC

By | at February 19, 2025 9:42 pm

As the Saints showed interest in multiple Eagles staffers for Kellen Moore‘s new OC, Philadelphia will protect one via promotion. Kevin Patullo will replace Moore as OC, NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo reports. The Super Bowl champions have since announced the move.

A true Eagles OC search does not look to have transpired, pointing to the team’s confidence in Patullo. While the Eagles’ last internal promotion at OC (replacing Shane Steichen with Brian Johnson) failed, Patullo — rumored as a Saints OC option early in that search — will be called upon to step in for Moore.

One of Nick Sirianni‘s hires when he arrived in Philly in 2021, Patullo has been the team’s pass-game coordinator for four seasons. Although he did not leapfrog Johnson to become OC once Steichen took the Colts’ HC job in 2023, he will make the move up after an Eagles job search that never appeared to take shape. Patullo also came up during the Jets and Ravens’ OC searches in 2023 but was not on the carousel in 2024, as a collapse defined the Eagles’ 2023 season.

The Eagles needed to have conducted an interview with at least one external minority to comply with the Rooney Rule, but they are not the only NFC power to move quickly on a candidate without having performed a thorough search. The Lions hired John Morton soon after losing Ben Johnson. Patullo will replace Moore, who rebuilt his stock after a down Chargers season. While Moore will walk into a Saints situation that features plenty of questions, Patullo will take the keys to an offense that just stampeded past the Chiefs to win Super Bowl LIX.

Philly is expected to lose QBs coach Doug Nussmeier to the Saints, as Moore’s new OC, but they will not see both offensive staffers leave. Nussmeier also has much closer ties to Moore than the team, having worked with the ex-Cowboys QB in Dallas and Los Angeles. Patullo, 43, has come up through the coaching ranks under Sirianni and Frank Reich.

Reich hired Patullo as his wide receivers coach to start his Colts tenure in 2018, and he held that role for two years before transitioning to a pass-game specialist in 2020. Sirianni brought Patullo with him to Philly in 2021, immediately installing him as pass-game coordinator. Patullo worked under Steichen for two years, as the Eagles transitioned to a run-oriented attack midway through the 2021 season before seeing Jalen Hurts display tremendous growth as a passer during an MVP-caliber 2022 season. After the Eagles took a step back in 2023, Moore, Patullo and Co. retooled the offense once again this past season.

The Eagles did not ask Hurts to operate as a passer on the level he had in 2022 and ’23, with the Saquon Barkley signing transforming Philly’s ground attack. The team ran roughshod over the Commanders in the NFC championship game, and although the Chiefs did well to minimize Barkley, the Eagles received a sharp game from Hurts in an MVP performance that included TD passes to A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith and a Super Bowl QB record 72 rushing yards.

Despite the Eagles’ step back under Johnson in 2023, the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane indicates the team wanted continuity for Hurts, who has trained in four offensive schemes over his first five seasons. Also transferring in college, Hurts has seen significant change on his coaching staffs in that span. Sirianni had Patullo pegged as his preferred Moore successor once he found out the Saints hire was imminent, McLane adds, lending to the non-search here.

The 2025 season will mark Patullo’s first crack as a play-caller at any level, but McLane adds he was involved with that process under Moore. Still, this will be a notable storyline to follow in Philadelphia, as Moore carried five seasons of play-calling experience into last season. Sirianni gave up play-calling duties midway through the ’21 season and will not be expected to reclaim them, as this formula has now produced two Eagles Super Bowl berths and a runaway title.

Beyond the Patullo move, NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero adds the Eagles are planning to hire Parks Frazier to fill Patullo’s old job. Philly’s new pass-game coordinator is best known for the half-season he spent as Jeff Saturday‘s Colts play-caller, as others turning the job down led to Indianapolis’ assistant QBs coach to take the role. Frazier, 33, worked for the 2-15 Panthers in 2023 (as pass-game coordinator) as for the Dolphins as an offensive assistant last season.

While Frazier will step back into a prominent role, the Eagles have ensured continuity under Sirianni in the form of Patullo moving up and acclaimed O-line coach Jeff Stoutland remaining in place as run-game coordinator. Frazier worked with Sirianni under Reich for three seasons in Indianapolis, though he topped out on the quality control level during that time.

Kevin Patullo On Eagles, Saints’ OC Radars

By | at February 11, 2025 2:48 pm

Even as Kellen Moore‘s stock climbed after Super Bowl LIX, the Eagles‘ OC did not opt to join the handful of coaches in rejecting the Saints to hold out for a potentially better job down the road. Moore is officially in place as the New Orleans HC, and he will now get to work on building a staff.

One of the names expected to be in play may soon have a decision to make. Both the Eagles and Saints are expected to show “strong” interest in Kevin Patullo for OC, ESPN.com’s Jeremy Fowler tweets. Patullo works as Philadelphia’s pass-game coordinator, making him a natural fit to climb into Moore’s role or follow him to New Orleans for the same role.

The Eagles did not have success when they last promoted from within at OC, firing Brian Johnson after one season on the job. Like Johnson, Patullo arrived on Nick Sirianni‘s staff during the HC’s first offseason in charge (2021). He was mentioned as a candidate to replace Shane Steichen two years ago, but the Eagles did not promote Patullo over Johnson. Patullo, 43, also met with the Jets that offseason. That marks his lone coordinator interview to date. More appear likely to come soon.

Unlike Johnson, Patullo has been an NFL staffer for many years. He previously coached Jets QBs and Colts wide receivers, also enjoying stints with the Chiefs, Bills and Titans since 2007. The Eagles bumped him up to associate HC upon losing Steichen. After Moore led the charge to revitalize Philly’s offense, Patullo clearly played a big role in assisting him — to the point a one-and-done Eagles staffer looks to have hopes of bringing him along.

An offer from the Eagles would seemingly be more intriguing than one from Moore, however, as the Super Bowl champions once again need a new play-caller. Sirianni has not called plays since early during his first season as HC, which would open the door to Patullo taking a major step forward. A play-calling gig on an offense housing Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith would stand to rocket Patullo onto the HC carousel in 2026, depending on how the team’s title defense goes. Bigger questions loom in New Orleans, which will have Moore calling plays. Both teams must satisfy the Rooney Rule, which mandates one external minority interview in-person for the gig.

Additionally, the Saints will be starting on filling out a staff much later than the other six HC-needy teams this offseason. Waiting until after the Super Bowl to make their hire, the Saints are behind on the coordinator carousels. Brandon Staley is in the mix for DC. Moore worked under Staley in 2023 with the Chargers, which would make for an interesting arrangement should a reunion come to pass. Moore oversaw Patullo for one season as well, with most of the new Saints HC’s contacts coming from the Cowboys, who employed him as OC for four seasons.

Staff Notes: Eagles, Arians, Evero, Panthers

By | at April 20, 2023 9:03 pm

The Eagles officially announced their coaching updates heading into the 2023 NFL season on Twitter today, revealing some updates to their completely made-over staff that we were previously unaware of.

On the offensive side of the ball, pass game coordinator Kevin Patullo received a promotion, adding the moniker of associate head coach to his title. Also, beneath the head coach, the team has hired Tyler Yelk to serve as assistant to the head coach.

On the defensive side of the ball, a couple of others received promotions. Formerly the assistant defensive backs coach, D.K. McDonald has taken over the position room as the new defensive backs coach. Filling McDonald’s previous role of assistant defensive backs coach will be Taver Johnson, who has experience in the NFL but most recently served as defensive pass game coordinator and safeties coach at Eastern Michigan. Tyler Scudder has become the team’s assistant linebackers coach after serving as a defensive assistant previously. Lastly, Philadelphia has hired Mike Diangelo in the role of defensive quality control.

Here are a few more updates in the coaching ranks of the NFL:

  • The Buccaneers made an addition to their staff this week, as well, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports. Tampa Bay brought Sarah Evans into the coaches office to serve in the role of senior manager of coaching operations. She’s been with the team since 2020 in roles concerning player relations and community efforts.
  • In another update from Tampa Bay, former head coach Bruce Arians will reportedly be taking another step back in 2023, according to Mike Florio of NBC Sports. Last year, he stepped down from head coach to senior advisor to the general manager. This year, he remains in that role, and has reportedly still been helpful leading up the draft but hasn’t been nearly as involved as he was last year.
  • Many have drooled over the elite names joining the Panthers‘ coaching staff this offseason, lauding owner David Tepper on his financial commitment to the staff. Thanks to Joe Person of The Athletic, we have some evidence of that. New defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero will reportedly move into the top ten highest-paid defensive coordinators in the NFL with a three-year contract worth about $9.3MM.
  • In the Carolina front office, the Panthers’ vice president of football operations, Steven Drummond, has resigned after over 17 years with the organization, according to Person.
