The Birds interviewed the 47-year-old for their vacancy, according to a report from <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MikeGarafolo\/status\/2014071852499406876\" rel=\"nofollow\">NFL insider Mike Garafolo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Eagles fans are already well-aware of Nagy for one reason or another. He has local roots from going to high school in Lancaster County and playing college football at Delaware. Nagy had a seven-year Arena Football League quarterback career before getting his first NFL job on Andy Reid\u2019s staff in 2008.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Here\u2019s a snapshot of his pro coaching career:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">In eight years as an offensive coordinator or head coach, the offenses that Nagy has been part of have an average rank of 19th in yards (rounded from 18.75) and 18th in points.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">The strongest year on his record is 2017, when Reid handed play-calling over to Nagy in early December of that season. The Chiefs finished fifth in yards and sixth in points that season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Nagy was then hired by the Bears (where he overlapped with Vic Fangio for one season) and he oversaw some pretty lackluster results before being fired:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">In fairness, the Bears had some bad quarterbacks during that stretch; Mitchell Trubisky was the starter for three years before Justin Fields and Andy Dalton split time in 2021.<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">Nagy returned to KC in 2022 and served as Patrick Mahomes\u2019 quarterbacks coach in the year the Chiefs beat the Eagles in the Super Bowl (boo). He was then promoted back to OC in 2023. A look at those offenses:<\/p>\n<p class=\"duet--article--dangerously-set-cms-markup duet--article--standard-paragraph _1nfb3k4i _16w9vov1 _16w9vov0 ls9zuh1\">All told, it\u2019s hard to make the case that the Eagles hiring Nagy is a high ceiling move. It would seem to be more about striving for some level of competency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Matt Nagy is the latest Philadelphia Eagles OC candidate.
