The Philadelphia Eagles unsurprisingly announced that they are moving on from much-maligned offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo, who struggled as a first-time play-caller in 2025.
The team issued a statement
by head coach Nick Sirianni explaining the reasoning behind his decision:
“I have decided to make a change at offensive coordinator. I met with Kevin [Patullo] 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.”
“Ultimately, when we fall short of our goals that responsibility lies on my shoulders.“
Sirianni is parting with his right-hand man that he originally brought to Philly five years ago. Patullo served under the “pass game coordinator” title in 2021-2022 before being bumped to “pass game coordinator and associate head coach” from 2023-2024 prior to the offensive coordinator promotion in 2025. Sirianni and Patullo previously overlapped together on the Indianapolis Colts from 2018-2020.
Now, Sirianni — alongside Howie Roseman and Jeffrey Lurie — will conduct interviews and start the process of finding Patullo’s replacement — their fifth offensive coordinator in as many years — for the position. After previous instances of unsuccessfully hiring within the organization, it’s likely that they focus their efforts on bringing someone in with considerably more play-calling experience than Patullo this time around.
