Dolphins Install Kevin Patullo as Passing-Game Coordinator After Hafley’s Strong Endorsement

Jeff Hafley says he was “blown away” by the former Eagles play-caller during Combine interviews.

Overview

Miami added the ex-Philadelphia offensive coordinator as passing-game coordinator as part of a broader staff reset under first-year coach Jeff Hafley and play-caller Bobby Slowik.
Hafley highlighted Patullo’s Super Bowl pedigree and behind-the-scenes impact, praising his football knowledge, game management and situational awareness.
Philadelphia removed Patullo after a 2025 season in which the Eagles ranked 24th in total offense, 23rd in passing, 18th in rushing and 19th in scoring.
The Eagles replaced him with first-time offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, while Hafley said he urged Slowik to hire Patullo and noted he had other opportunities.
Coverage presents the hire as a bid to redefine Miami’s passing identity with unresolved questions about the quarterback position and overall offensive direction.
