Few teams in the NFL suffered as many offseason losses as the Philadelphia Eagles did over the last few months.
Defensive linemen like Milton Williams and Josh Sweat found lucrative new contracts elsewhere. Aging veterans like Darius Slay were released for salary cap purposes.
Now, along the way, the Eagles have continued to maintain their approach and also maintain their status as a top Super Bowl contender. But there is another loss that ranks high here ... and it is a surprise in that it's not just about the roster.
In fact, Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox believes that the biggest loss for the team this offseason wasn't a player, but offensive coordinator turned New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore.
"As is often the case for teams that win the Super Bowl, the Eagles lost a few key contributors this offseason," Knox said. "Perhaps the biggest departure, however, was that of offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who left to become the Saints' head coach.
"Moore and defensive coordinator Vic Fangio helped Philly right the proverbial ship in 2025 after a double-coordinator change sunk it the previous season."
Moore helped stabilize Philadelphia's offense in 2024 after a dismal and inconsistent showing in 2023. The former quarterback was able to help the Eagles offense get back to being one of the best units in the league behind an elite running game.
Moore propelled that success into a head coaching job elsewhere. To replace him, the Eagles are promoting Kevin Patullo to offensive play-caller.
And the organization is praying the former passing game coordinator will be up to the challenge. ... filling the gap of a major loss.
