What is the story about?
Now that the Eagles have closed the book on the 2025 NFL season, they have turned their full attention to filling their vacant offensive coordinator position.
The Eagles have reportedly given some OC candidates certain assurances that they would have autonomy over the offense, and Howie Roseman and Nick Sirianni confirmed as much in their end-of-season news conference. Sirianni said it was too early to know exactly how things would be structured because there’s a variety of candidates they’ll consider,
but said there wouldn’t be any interference.
Here’s everything we’re hearing regarding their search and who they are bringing in for interviews.
Rumored interest in interviews

Requests for Interviews
