Howie Fills Kevin Patullo’s Assistant Coach Void with 6-Time Pro Bowler

Donovan McNabb to officially retire as an Eagle on Monday

Philadelphia, PA – June 27, 2025

The Eagles’ offense just got a boost! With Kevin Patullo’s promotion to offensive coordinator, GM Howie Roseman tapped a six-time Pro Bowler to fill the assistant coach role, ensuring Philly’s title chase stays hot, per ESPN.

Patullo’s rise left the passing game coordinator spot open, risking Philly’s high-octane attack post-Super Bowl LIX. Roseman’s solution: a legendary quarterback with 32,873 career yards to guide Jalen Hurts’ growth.

Donovan McNabb, the Eagles’ icon, joins as passing game coordinator and associate head coach. His return, per NFL.com, electrifies Philly, reigniting memories of his Super Bowl XXXIX run in 2004.

McNabb’s mentorship experience with Carson Wentz and Syracuse QBs fuels optimism. His Fox Sports analysis showcased playbook mastery, making him a perfect fit for Patullo’s evolving offense, per The Athletic.

Philly’s 2024 offense averaged 28.9 points, with Hurts’ 69% completion rate and A.J. Brown’s 1,456 yards. McNabb’s expertise, per Pro-Football-Reference, aims to lift Hurts’ 2,903 passing yards from last season’s dip.

Roseman’s $30 million 2026 cap space enabled this splashy hire. McNabb’s vision aligns with Nick Sirianni’s, per CBSSports.com, promising to amplify Saquon Barkley’s 2,504-yard legacy for another title push.

 

“Philly’s passion drives me,” McNabb told PhillyVoice. Fans on X, like @BleedGreenNation, expect his playbook to spark a passing game renaissance, addressing 2024’s struggles and fueling Super Bowl LX hopes.

As Philly opens against Dallas, McNabb’s leadership could ignite a dynasty. Will his return bring more rings? Eagles Nation’s buzzing for another championship run with their legend back home.
