Eagles add former Bucs OC Josh Grizzard as passing game coordinator: report
Josh Grizzard joins the Eagles to support new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion, bringing expertise from Tampa Bay where his unit led the NFL with a 51.1% third-down conversion rate.
- On Friday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the Philadelphia Eagles hired Josh Grizzard, former Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator, as passing game coordinator less than a day after naming Sean Mannion offensive coordinator on Thursday.
- After a lengthy search, the Eagles sought outside voices and interviewed multiple times, with Grizzard among four finalists for the OC role, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said.
- Grizzard brings coaching experience from Miami under Mike McDaniel and coordinated Tampa Bay's third-down play, leading the NFL with a 51.1% conversion rate.
- Grizzard will join Sean Mannion to help install passing-game concepts for Jalen Hurts, potentially adding wrinkles to the Eagles' offense.
- After being fired earlier this month, Grizzard now lands in Philadelphia, gaining a chance to rebound following Tampa Bay's late-season injuries and staff changes, including Zac Robinson's hiring.
