Philadelphia Eagles promote Kevin Patullo to OC after Kellen Moore's departure

The Philadelphia Eagles announced Wednesday they have promoted pass game coordinator and associate head coach Kevin Patullo to offensive coordinator for the 2025 season.

Patullo, 43, is replacing Kellen Moore, who took the head coaching job with the New Orleans Saints following Philadelphia’s 40-22 Super Bowl LIX victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.

Patullo, who got his coaching start as a graduate assistant at his alma mater USF in 2003, will be a first-time play caller in the NFL. He will hope to build on the success Moore had, but the good news is that all of the Eagles’ key pieces — quarterback Jalen Hurts, running back Saquon Barkley and receivers AJ Brown/DeVonta Smith, are back next season.

Nick Sirianni hands OC duties over to Kevin Patullo

Patullo has been on Philadelphia’s staff since head coach Nick Sirianni‘s arrival in 2021 and has plenty of familiarity with the team.

“Very important to the success that we’ve had. He wears a lot of different hats,” Sirianni said in a statement. “Helps me a lot with different head coaching things. I can’t tell you that I make a decision without saying to Kevin first, ‘What do you think?’ That’s in everything. That’s in-game, out of game, with scheduling, that’s with offensive stuff, that’s with game-management stuff, I lean on him a lot. 

“That continuity is really important because he knows what I’m thinking in certain situations, how you want things to be taught, all of those different things, so he’s been a great resource for me the entire time, our success this year, but really the success we’ve had since we’ve been here. Can’t be great without the greatness of others and that is definitely a fact with Kevin Patullo, and I trust him with everything. Got a ton of trust and faith with him. He’s awesome.”

Patullo has over a decade of experience working with quarterbacks and receivers at both the collegiate and NFL level. He sees value in that as he transitions to calling plays.

“Being able to coach both positions, you can really marry the two,” Patullo said. “Coaching receivers in Indy, I was able to use my quarterback knowledge from coaching that position and playing it and get the guys to understand why they needed to be somewhere and why we needed to have them there at that time. … I think you can teach the guys a perspective that they’re not used to hearing.”
