The Philadelphia Eagles parted ways with offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo following a disappointing 2025 season that saw the team drop from the ninth to the twenty-third ranked offense in the league. New details surfaced regarding a specific 4th and 11 situation during the playoffs where reports indicate Patullo failed to provide a play call. According to the report from the Inquirer, quarterback Jalen Hurts suggested a play because the coaching staff did not have one prepared. Head coach Nick Sirianni ultimately approved the choice, but the event fueled internal concerns about Patullo's performance. Following his departure from Philadelphia, Patullo joined the Miami Dolphins as their new passing game coordinator. He will serve in that role as the team enters a transition period with Malik Willis taking over the offense.
