The Philadelphia Eagles are making changes, though head coach Nick Sirianni appears to be safe.
According to JAKIB Media's Derrick Gunn, the Eagles are expected to part ways with offensive coordinator Brian Johnson.
"All indications are Brian Johnson will not be returning as the Eagles OC …. He will land elsewhere in some offensive capacity …," Gunn reports on X/Twitter.
Johnson joined the Eagles as their quarterbacks coach in 2021.
As the Eagles' QB coach, Johnson is best known for helping Jalen Hurts lead the team to a 14-3 record and a Super Bowl run in 2022.
After two seasons coaching quarterbacks, he was promoted to offensive coordinator this past year.
While the Eagles managed a devastating late-season collapse followed by a 10-1 start to the season, their offense finished ranked 7th in points scored and 8th in total yards. They also made the post-season for a third straight year.
The Tennesse Titans and Atlanta Falcons have expressed interest in hiring Johnson for their vacant head coach positions.
The Carolina Panthers also requested Johnson but chose to cancel their interview with him as of Monday afternoon, according to several reports.
The Eagles have already moved on from both defensive coordinator Sean Desai and defensive assistant Matt Patricia.
