The Philadelphia Eagles’ search for a new offensive coordinator has finally come to an end, as the team is set to hire former Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion.
Mannion is a rapid riser with just two years of coaching experience to his name after just having retired from the NFL as a player following the 2023 season.
After the news of Mannion’s hiring was officially announced by the team, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni released a lengthy statement. It reads as follows:
"I'm thrilled to have Sean Mannion on board as the new offensive coordinator of the Philadelphia Eagles. My goal throughout this process was to operate with an open mind regarding the future of our offense to find the best fit for the Eagles. Over the last few weeks, I had an opportunity to meet with a number of talented candidates and great offensive minds. I am appreciative of the time I was able to spend with each of them. Some came with years of experience running an offense and calling plays. Others were young, sharp, and dynamic coaches on the rise. I felt it was important to be patient and thorough to allow the right fit to reveal himself to us. Sean did just that.
"It was quickly apparent in meeting with Sean that he is a bright young coach with a tremendous future ahead of him in this league. I was impressed by his systematic views on offensive football and his strategic approach. Sean's 11 years in the NFL have provided him a great opportunity to learn from and grow alongside some of the best coaches in the game. As a result, he has a wealth of knowledge and experience that will be invaluable to our team moving forward. I can't wait to see Sean with our team, and I want to welcome him and his wife, Megan, to the Eagles family."
