Report: Dolphins hire ex-Eagles OC Kevin Patullo as assistant

The Miami Dolphins are adding another piece to their new offensive staff, hiring Kevin Patullo as passing game coordinator after his one-season stint running the Philadelphia Eagles offense ended with a staff reset, according to an NFL Network report.

Patullo will work under first-year head coach Jeff Hafley and newly promoted offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. In Miami, Patullo's focus will be on building the weekly passing plan and player development rather than managing the entire offense.

Philadelphia's offense slipped into the middle of the pack in Patullo's lone year as coordinator. The Eagles were 19th in scoring, 23rd in passing yards, 18th in rushing yards and 24th in third-down efficiency, reflecting a steep drop from the prior season under Kellen Moore.

Philadelphia stayed the course all year with Patullo as the primary play-caller before changing direction after a wild-card loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Patullo had been a key lieutenant for Nick Sirianni, previously serving as passing game coordinator and associate head coach from 2021-24. The Eagles moved quickly to fill the opening, naming Sean Mannion as their new offensive coordinator on Jan. 29.
