Nick Sirianni and the Eagles will be tasked with finding a new offensive coordinator, and possibly other coaching positions.

After trudging through the 2025 season with a bad, boring offense, the Philadelphia Eagles relieved offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo of his duties. We'll see if more firings of positional coaches are to follow. Here we'll keep track of all the hirings, firings, interviews, and noteworthy rumors in one place. Most recent entries at the top of the tracker:

Finally. The Eagles hired Sean Mannion to be their offensive coordinator (1/29)

Josh Grizzard gets second interview with Eagles (1/29)

(Report via Jordan Schultz)

Grizzard, the former Bucs OC, became the third candidate to interview with the Eagles for the second time in Philadelphia, joining Jim Bob Cooter and Sean Mannion. We wrote about Grizzard's background here

Jeff Stoutland may not be the Eagles' run game coordinator anymore (1/29)

(From Jeff McLane's podcast, 35:00 mark)

"From what I understand, at some point last season, that was pretty much taken away from him," McLane said. "I don't know if that was because he wasn't getting the job done, or they just decided, 'OK, we're better at doing this.' If you look at, prior to this year how well they ran the ball and Jeff Stoutland being in charge of the run game, you'd think that you'd stick with the guy who has had that much success.

"As we mentioned there were injuries on the offensive line, so I think, quite frankly, talking to people in the building, people close to him, people in the room with him, the players, I don't think Stoutland was anywhere near chiefly responsible for the woes along the offensive line and the run game. Certainly he's part of it, and he's responsible for them, so even he would say, 'Yeah I gotta do a better job.' 

"But that being said I would be surprised if he returns as the run game coordinator, even if they bring in someone who runs his type of scheme. I think that's possibly something that could be taken away from him, and he'll come back as the offensive line coach and be able to focus on getting these guys to play better."

Jim Bob Cooter interviewed with the Eagles again (1/28)

(Report via ESPN)

This was an in-person interview. His first interview was virtual, per the report. As noted here, Cooter previously worked for Nick Sirianni. After a season in which the Eagles' offense stunk largely because of Sirianni's scheme, fans are likely going to be immediately irritated by any coaches with past links to Sirianni.

Eagles among many teams interested in Broncos PGC/QBs coach Davis Webb (1/27)

(Report via Adam Schefter)

ESPN reports that the Eagles, along with the Giants and Ravens, would like to interview Davis Webb for their OC jobs, but Webb has interviewed for the Raiders' head coaching job, which remains open. So the Raiders first have to decide who they want.

Also, the Broncos just fired their offensive coordinator, Joe Lombardi, in a move to perhaps to promote Webb to OC. So that's another team to consider in the mix. Wouldn't hold your breath, Eagles fans. 

The Titans are reportedly hiring Brian Daboll to be offensive coordinator (1/27)

It had been previously reported (below) that Daboll would take the Titans OC job if he did not get hired to be the Bills' head coach. And well, that's what is happening.

Eagles interviewed Packers QBs coach Sean Mannion for OC job, bringing in for follow-up (1/27)

Article here.

The Eagles promoted Joe Kasper to defensive passing game coordinator and defensive backs coach (1/27)

(Report via Cameron Wolfe.)

As expected. Those two above titles were previously held by Christian Parker, who was hired by the Cowboys to be their new defensive coordinator. Kasper was previously the Eagles' safeties coach.

Lions hire Mike Kafka for high-ranking role on offensive staff (1/26)

Per NFL Media, Lions head coach Dan Campbell is hiring the former Giants OC/interim HC, who had interviewed for the Eagles' OC job.

The Eagles interview Kafka, a former Eagles QB, early in the process but have been patient and Kafka probably was getting an indication that he wasn't going to get the OC job. Now he'll work with new Lions OC Drew Petzing and Campbell. 

Bears OC Declan Doyle is staying in Chicago (1/26)

Per Dianna Russini, Doyle, who has only been an OC for one season and doesn't call plays, has decided that he will stay with Bears HC Ben Johnson in Chicago.

Seems like a lot of guys are suddenly saying that they have withdrawn their name from consideration, with the Eagles and with other teams around the league, like Phillip Rivers with the Bills, and Grand Udinski with the Browns. It feels like we may be getting some answers soon. 🤔

LSU OC Charlie Weis Jr. is staying at LSU (1/26)

Per Dianna Russini, Weis spoke with the Eagles about their open OC position, but informed the Eagles that he will be staying at LSU.

I remember one time I was dating a woman who I could tell wasn't really that into me, so I informed her that I was going to pursue other opportunities. However, I didn't have my agent leak it to the press.

Eagles "set to speak with" Texans QB coach Jerrod Johnson for open OC job (1/26)

Article here.

Eagles reportedly interviewed former Dolphins OC Frank Smith for OC job (1/26)

Article here.

Cowboys denied Eagles' request to interview Klayton Adams for open OC job (1/25)

(Report via Jeremy Fowler.)

After coaching a variety of positional groups throughout his career -- notably the offensive line, tight ends, and running backs -- Adams was hired to be the Cowboys' offensive coordinator in 2025. Adams did not call plays for the Cowboys. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer did.

In 2025, the Cowboys' offense finished 2nd in yards, and 7th in points. They were also a balanced attack, finishing 2nd in passing offense and a surprisingly high 9th in rushing offense after finishing 27th in rushing offense in 2024.

Bobby Slowik is reportedly accepting the Dolphins' offensive coordinator job (1/24)

(Report via ESPN.)

Slowik had previously interviewed with the Eagles.

The Dolphins interviewed Eagles defensive line coach Clint Hurtt for their open defensive coordinator job (1/24)

(Report via Jeremy Fowler.)

Hurtt has experience as a defensive coordinator serving in that role for the Seahawks in 2022 and 2023. During Hurtt's time with the Eagles, players like Jalen Carter, Jordan Davis, Milton Williams, and Moro Ojomo have all had good seasons.

The Falcons are interviewing Joe Douglas for their open general manager job (1/22)

(Report via Jonathan Jones.)

Douglas was Howie Roseman's personnel chief during his first stint with the Eagles, before landing a job as the Jets' general manager from 2019-2024. After the Jets fired him, Douglas re-joined the Eagles as a senior personnel director. He might get another shot at a GM job.

The Falcons are also reportedly interviewing Steelers assistant GM Andy Weidl and Bears assistant GM Ian Cunningham, both of whom formerly worked in the Eagles' scouting department.

The Cowboys will reportedly be hiring Christian Parker to be their new defensive coordinator (1/22)

Parker has proven to help develop cornerbacks into All-Pro players. Coordinating a defense is a different kind of job, so we'll see how well he does in that role, but what is certain is that this is a significant loss for the Eagles.

Eagles ask to interview young Bears non play-calling OC Declan Doyle (1/21)

Article here

Zac Robinson, who interviewed with Eagles, named Bucs OC (1/21)

Another day, another potential Eagles OC taking the same job elsewhere. Per Adam Schefter:


The fit was always questionable as Robinson is a branch of the Sean McVay tree, but he was interviewed by the Birds, so some degree of interest was there.

Matt Nagy interviewed with the Eagles (1/21)

Article here.

Brian Daboll wants Bills HC job, Titans OC job is his safety net (1/21)

Per Dianna Russini: 

So, you know, he won't be the Eagles' OC, if accurate. Again, a little more evidence that the Eagles' OC job might not be that attractive.

Mike McDaniel interviewed virtually with the Eagles (1/21)

Per E.J. Smith:

McDaniel already took the Chargers' open OC job, as E.J. notes above, so this addition to the tracker is really just for the sake of posterity, and maybe as an indicator that other OC jobs are more attractive to candidates.

Christian Parker will interview with the Packers (1/20)

As noted below, Parker has already interviewed with the Cowboys for their open defensive coordinator job. He reportedly has a second interview in Dallas today. 

But also, now that 2025 Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley has been hired as the Miami Dolphins' new head coach, Parker will also interview with Green Bay for that open position, per Jordan Schultz.

The Eagles can probably expect to lose Parker, and possibly to a conference rival.

The Daboll interview will happen on Tuesday (1/20)

(Per Dianni Russini.)

Russini also notes that Daboll is getting some interest in head coaching jobs, which seems nuts to me, given the way his head coaching career went with the Giants.

Eagles request to interview Dolphins passing game coordinator Bobby Slowik (1/19)

Eagles to interview fired former Buccaneers OC Josh Grizzard for OC job (1/19)

Article here.

Eagles to interview Brian Daboll for OC job (1/18)

(Report via Jordan Schultz.)

We covered Daboll below, who is reportedly "at the top of the Eagles' OC wish list."

Michael Clay will remain the Eagles' special teams coach (1/18)

Clay's previous contract was up, and he had gotten some interest from around the league (as noted below), but he signed a new deal with the Eagles to remain their special teams coach, per Ian Rapoport.

Eagles request to interview Colts OC Jim Bob Cooter (1/17)

Giants interim HC/OC Mike Kafka interviewed with the Eagles (1/17)

Falcons OC Zac Robinson is interviewing with the Eagles (1/16)

Article here.

Michael Clay is interviewing for the Buccaneers' open special teams coordinator job (1/15)

(Report via Mike Garafolo.)

The Eagles struggled on special teams at times in 2025, though their biggest issue was Jake Elliott missing kicks, which doesn't have much to do with Clay. The Eagles did win a couple of games partly because they blocked kicks, against the Rams and Bills.

The Eagles 'have poked around on' Charlie Weis Jr. for their open offensive coordinator job (1/15)

(Report via Pat Leonard.)

Weis was the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Ole Miss under Lane Kiffin from 2022-2025. He is expected follow Kiffin to LSU, pending other offers. Ole Miss won playoff games over Tulane and Georgia, before falling to Miami in the semi-final. Along the way, quarterback Trinidad Chambliss had a breakout season, finishing eighth in Heisman voting.

Weis is only 32 years of age.

Report says Mike McDaniel and Brian Daboll are at the top of the Eagles' OC list (1/14)

(Report via Dianna Russini.)

McDaniel was most recently the head coach of the Miami Dolphins, where he compiled a 35-33 record over four seasons. The Dolphins' offense was on an upward trajectory during McDaniel's first two seasons, but it stalled in 2024 and cratered in 2025. 

McDaniel comes from the Shanahan tree, and his offenses are heavy on pre-snap motion, misdirection, and timing. In many ways, his offense is totally unlike the Eagles' current offensive scheme. And maybe that's not a bad thing. If McDaniel is truly atop the Eagles' wish list, that could be a signal that they are willing to trash Nick Sirianni's offense for something new.

Daboll was most recently the Giants' head coach. He had a 20-40-1 career record before being fired in-season. He was just generally an embarrassment, as he regularly threw temper tantrums on the sidelines, directed at officials, players, and even the team doctor. In the aftermath of a win over the Eagles this season, Daboll was harshly criticized for interfering with team doctors trying to conduct necessary testing within the confines of the concussion protocol, after Jaxson Dart showed concussion symptoms.

Daboll did have some success as the offensive coordinator for the Bills from 2018-2021, as he was credited for helping develop Josh Allen. He was also the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for the 2017 Crimson Tide, the team that benched Jalen Hurts in the National Championship Game in favor of Tua Tagovailoa.

We'll have more complete bios for McDaniel and/or Daboll if they officially interview with the Eagles.

Eagles defensive pass game coordinator and defensive backs coach Christian Parker to interview with the Cowboys for the open defensive coordinator job (1/14)

(Report via Jordan Schultz.)

Parker has been with the Eagles the last two seasons, and before that, three seasons with the Denver Broncos. In his half decade with those two teams, he has helped with the development of star players such as Patrick Surtain, Quinyon Mitchell, and Cooper DeJean, and has been mentored by a legend in Vic Fangio.

He is probably the Eagles positional coach most likely to find a coordinator job this offseason. The Eagles are bracing to lose him, though I'm sure they would prefer that not be to the Cowboys.

Kliff Kingsbury and Kevin Stefanski will "get a real look for the Eagles offensive coordinator position" (1/13)

(Report via Josina Anderson.)

Kingsbury is best known for his four-year head coaching tenure in Arizona, a span during which the Cardinals had a 28-37-1 record. It's worth noting that when the Eagles were looking for a new offensive coordinator during the 2024 offseason, Kingsbury interviewed with the Eagles, but the job ultimately went to Kellen Moore.

Kingsbury instead became the Commanders' offensive coordinator, helping lead them to the NFC Championship Game in 2024 under superstar rookie Jayden Daniels. In 2025, Daniels wasn't a superstar so much, the Commanders went 5-12, and Kingsbury was fired.

Stefanski was the Browns' head coach for the last six years, twice winning NFL Coach of the Year honors. However, the Browns suffered through an 8-26 record the last two seasons, mainly because they had bad quarterbacks. He finished with a 45-56 record during his time in Cleveland, making the playoffs twice.

Stefanski is a Philly native who attended St. Joe's Prep and UPenn.

Kingsbury and Stefanski are both interviewing for head coaching jobs around the league, so taking a coordinator position with the Eagles or any other team would be a fallback option. We'll have more detailed bios on Kingsbury or Stefanski if they actually interview with the Eagles.
