Eagles QB Jalen Hurts May Face Another Quarterback Coach in 2026, as Scot Loeffler's Future with the Team Remains Uncertain.
The Philadelphia Eagles are reportedly shopping for a new quarterbacks coach after just one season under Scot Loeffler, who led the team to several promising performances from signal-caller Jalen Hurts. However, Loeffler's departure would not be the first in recent years - offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo was also let go after just one season.
The situation has raised eyebrows, particularly given that Hurts will have yet another new play caller, Sean Mannion, at the helm for 2026. This would mark Hurts' fifth different quarterbacks coach in five seasons with the Eagles.
Veteran offensive coach Greg Olson is said to be a 'name to watch' for the Eagles QB position, according to NFL Media's Mike Garafolo. As former interim OC of the Las Vegas Raiders, Olson has experience coaching under different systems and has also coached under Jon Gruden and Steve Mariucci - both West Coast offense legends.
Olson's familiarity with West Coast-style offenses is significant, given that Mannion is expected to bring this system to the Eagles for 2026. The team has already started interviewing candidates, including Connor Senger, a young pass game specialist from the Arizona Cardinals who has gained recognition as an up-and-coming coach.
Senger's interview process comes on the heels of the Eagles' recent hires of Mannion and Josh Grizzard as their new offensive coordinator and pass game coordinator, respectively. However, the team remains tight-lipped about Loeffler's status, despite reports suggesting that he is likely to be let go after just one season.
As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is certain - Hurts will face yet another change in his coaching staff for 2026. Only time will tell which coach will ultimately help him and Mannion achieve success on the field.
