The Philadelphia Eagles are planning to promote Parks Frazier, their former passing game coordinator, to the role of quarterbacks coach. This is an interesting move on the newly minted offensive staff led by first-time offensive coordinator Sean Mannion and passing game coordinator Josh Grizzard.

Why it matters

Frazier, 34, has never been in charge of a position group in his NFL coaching career, which will reach its ninth season in 2026. This raises questions about his ability to teach the technique and fundamentals to star quarterback Jalen Hurts, who will be tasked with learning different footwork and drop points to execute a play-action heavy offense.

The details

Frazier was hired by the Eagles in 2025 as the passing game coordinator after stints with the Miami Dolphins, Carolina Panthers, and Indianapolis Colts. His move to QB coach means former Bowling Green coach Scot Loeffler will likely be one-and-done in Philadelphia. The Eagles had been looking for an upgrade at quarterbacks coach and reportedly interviewed Cardinals passing game specialist Connor Senger, and were also linked to veteran NFL coach Greg Olson.

  • Frazier was hired by the Eagles in 2025 as the passing game coordinator.
