The Philadelphia Eagles are hiring former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard as their new pass game coordinator, according to a report from NFL insider Adam Schefter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This news comes one day after the Eagles hired Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion as their new offensive coordinator<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Grizzard was seemingly one of the finalists for the Eagles\u2019 OC job; he was one of four known candidates who received a second interview for that position. Here\u2019s what we previously wrote about him<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The Bucs hired Grizzard to assist Liam Coen in replacing Dave Canales as Tampa\u2019s offensive coordinator. Then Grizzard replaced Coen as OC in 2025.<\/p>\n

Grizzard\u2019s sole season as a play-caller resulted in the Bucs ranking 19th in points and 20th in yards. He was fired after just one year on the job.<\/p>\n

In fairness, Tampa dealt with a lot of injury issues in 2025. But it\u2019s hard to ignore how the Bucs fell off a cliff and finished 8-9 after their 6-2 start.<\/p>\n

There was a point last season when Baker Mayfield was generating MVP buzz, so, that much probably contributes to the Eagles having interest in him. But one would think they\u2019re looking for either a more proven candidate or a higher upside swing.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the Eagles took a big swing on Mannion. And now they\u2019re pairing him with someone who has some play-calling experience.<\/p>\n

On one hand, the infusion of new offensive ideas seems like a good approach to take. Mannion and Grizzard have different backgrounds that aren\u2019t connected to each other \u2026 or with Nick Sirianni or Jalen Hurts.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, I\u2019m curious about the power structure of this offense. Mannion is reportedly going to call plays. But how much will Sirianni be involved? And what does Grizzard\u2019s influence look like? Recall that the Eagles created a \u201ctoo many cooks in the kitchen\u201d dynamic back in 2020.<\/p>\n

Also, does the Grizzard hire mean Kevin Patullo is now definitely gone? It was previously reported that the Eagles were retaining him but now both of his previous positions have been filled. Will he be kept on as some sort of senior assistant? And is 2025 Eagles pass game coordinator Parks Frazier headed out the door as well?<\/p>\n

We\u2019ll see. For now, we know Grizzard is joining Mannion in Philly.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Philadelphia Eagles are hiring former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard as their new pass game…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":718651,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2077],"tags":[1842,211,25,7,345,492,14916,6,5351,12611,109,11052,704,250,2597,2596,394,425],"class_list":["post-718650","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa-bay-buccaneers","tag-baker-mayfield","tag-buccaneers","tag-eagles","tag-football","tag-green-bay-packers","tag-jalen-hurts","tag-josh-grizzard","tag-nfl","tag-nick-sirianni","tag-offensive-coordinator","tag-philadelphia-eagles","tag-sean-mannion","tag-tampa-bay","tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers","tag-tampabay","tag-tampabaybuccaneers","tag-tennessee-titans","tag-the-eagles"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115988775954968036","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/718650","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=718650"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/718650\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/718651"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=718650"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=718650"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=718650"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
