Eagles Tap 33-Year-Old Sean Mannion as Offensive Coordinator and Play Caller

The first-time NFL play caller is tasked with jump-starting a stalled 2025 unit, reflecting a calculated bet on quarterback-centric coaching.

Overview

  • Philadelphia has officially hired Sean Mannion as offensive coordinator, and a league source confirmed he will handle play-calling duties.
  • Mannion, 33, steps in after serving as the Packers’ quarterbacks coach in 2025, when Jordan Love completed 66.3% of his passes for 3,381 yards, 23 touchdowns and six interceptions in 15 games.
  • Former Vikings coaches Klint Kubiak and Andrew Janocko praised Mannion’s recall and processing, calling the hire a home run and predicting he will manage play-calling effectively.
  • The Eagles are reworking their offensive staff, hiring Josh Grizzard as pass game coordinator and expecting Jeff Stoutland to stay with a possible change to his run-game title.
  • The move follows a down year in which the offense ranked 19th in EPA per drive and 21st in points per game, and it will give Jalen Hurts his seventh NFL play caller in seven seasons.
