The Eagles<\/a> have cast a wide net in their search for an offensive coordinator, and a familiar name is set to meet with Howie Roseman and Nick Sirianni. Dianna Russini reports that the Eagles are set to speak with Houston Texans<\/a> quarterbacks coach Jerrod Johnson.<\/a><\/p>\n

Johnson actually interviewed for the job<\/a> following the 2023 season when Brian Johnson was fired.<\/p>\n

Under his direction,\u00a0Houston Texans<\/a>\u00a0rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud put together one of the greatest seasons ever by a first-year signal caller, throwing for 4,108 yards and 23 touchdowns against five interceptions in 15 games.<\/p>\n

Stroud led the NFL in passing yards per game (273.9).<\/p>\n

This season, Davis Mills was efficient and prepared during a three-game stint while Stroud was out with an injury. Before joining the Texans as their quarterbacks coach, Johnson spent one year in the same role for the\u00a0Minnesota Vikings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

During that one season, Vikings<\/a> quarterback Kirk Cousins made the Pro Bowl after throwing for 4,547 yards and 29 touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Johnson is a Texas A&M graduate and was an All-Big 12 performer with the Aggies, throwing for 8,011 yards and 67 touchdowns in his collegiate career. And he’s got a relationship with Hurts thanks to his Texas roots.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Updated Jan. 26, 2026, 9:49 a.m. ET The Eagles have cast a wide net in their search for…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":709002,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2056],"tags":[95878,7,221,253,2368,6,97111,97112,95882,96240,96676,102980,95953,97645,97157,95988,95896,95888,95895,95906,96191,96099,96177,95883,222,95881],"class_list":["post-709001","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-houston-texans","tag-accessfree","tag-football","tag-houston","tag-houston-texans","tag-houstontexans","tag-nfl","tag-sstssportsnfleagles","tag-sstsneagles","tag-tagamerican-football","tag-tagbrian-johnson","tag-tagc-j-stroud","tag-tagdavis-mills","tag-taghouston-texans","tag-taghowie-roseman","tag-tagkirk-cousins","tag-tagminnesota-vikings","tag-tagnational-sports","tag-tagnfl","tag-tagnfl-hub","tag-tagoverall-positive","tag-tagphiladelphia-eagles","tag-tagsec-conference-football","tag-tagsmg-breaking-wire","tag-tagsports-news","tag-texans","tag-typestory"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/709001","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=709001"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/709001\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/709002"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=709001"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=709001"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=709001"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
