According to a new report, Sirianni will not serve as the play caller for the upcoming NFL season.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">\u201cNew Eagles OC Sean Mannion will be calling plays for Philadelphia, per source. Mannion did not call plays during his two seasons in Green Bay,\u201d Dianna Russini wrote on X while detailing Mannion\u2019s new role with the Eagles.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Russini also clarified that the Eagles\u2019 head coach will continue to have a significant voice in how the offense operates, particularly in scoring situations. \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/topic\/nick-sirianni\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Nick Sirianni<\/a> will, of course, have an influence on the offense too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some wanted Sirianni to take over play-calling duties<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Before Mannion was hired, some fans and reporters were pushing for Nick Sirianni to serve as the play caller for the 2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/nfl\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">NFL<\/a> season. While that idea isn\u2019t unusual around the league, it runs counter to the traditional role of the offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">\u201cThey have Nick Sirianni, who could always call the offense if they can\u2019t find anybody worthy of doing the job,\u201d Adam Schefter said on ESPN, echoing a sentiment that had been circulating at the time.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"break-word\">It also emerged that there were certain \u201cadjustments\u201d made among the coaching staff during last season. According to Jeff McLane, Eagles offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland had his run-game coordinator responsibilities taken away at some point during the year, although it remains unclear whether that decision came directly from Sirianni.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Philadelphia Eagles have now named Sean Mannion as their offensive coordinator, a move that comes as a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":716556,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2068],"tags":[25,7,6,5351,242,109,2476],"class_list":{"0":"post-716555","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-philadelphia-eagles","8":"tag-eagles","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-nfl","11":"tag-nick-sirianni","12":"tag-philadelphia","13":"tag-philadelphia-eagles","14":"tag-philadelphiaeagles"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115984230397841878","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/716555","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=716555"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/716555\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/716556"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=716555"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=716555"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=716555"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
