  • A.J. Brown, Sean Mannion's impact, and contract decisions: what the league will be saying about the Eagles at the combine

    A.J. Brown, Sean Mannion's impact, and contract decisions: what the league will be saying about the Eagles at the combine
    Feb 19 2026
    The offseason is about to blast into full swing and, unlike this time a year ago, the Eagles are surrounded by question marks. On the heels of the team’s failed bid for another Super Bowl, coaching changes ensued, which are expected to usher in a significant philosophical pivot on offense. But with next week’s scouting combine approaching, the Eagles, along with the rest of the NFL, will start to focus more on personnel decisions. The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane has covered plenty of combines, and knows where and how to dig up juicy intel. He and Inquirer colleague David Murphy examine Eagles storylines that figure to be front and center when the league descends on Indianapolis. 00:00 Getting gossip at the NFL’s biggest power broker mixer of the year 02:36 Forecasting A.J. Brown’s future 13:34 Which Eagles free agents could stay, go 20:55 Contract extensions and their implications on the defensive line 29:45 Diving into Sean Mannion and his scheme 37:01 How much will the Eagles change the offense? 44:20 Closing the book on Jeff Stoutland’s exit, Chris Kuper’s hiring unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

  • Stoutland, Fangio, Mannion: What Jeff’s been hearing at the Super Bowl

    Stoutland, Fangio, Mannion: What Jeff’s been hearing at the Super Bowl
    Feb 5 2026
    The Eagles failed to make it back to the Super Bowl this year, but, as The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane can vouch for during his trip to the Bay Area, the team is still dominating conversations around the league. That’s because in the past week, the Eagles hired a new offensive coordinator, parted ways with a revered assistant, and, much to their relief, got word from their defensive guru that he’ll be returning for another season. Jeff checks in from San Francisco to talk with The Inquirer’s Olivia Reiner, as the two sift through what they’ve been hearing and what fans can expect now that the Eagles’ coaching staff is rounding into form. 00:00 Jeff Stoutland’s exit, and its “messy” handling 14:55 With Stout out, could Lane Johnson be next? 17:11 Why Vic Fangio came back 27:30 Jeff McLane talks with Klint Kubiak about pupil Sean Mannion 30:15 What Jeff and Olivia know about Mannion and his potential impact on the offense, Jalen Hurts 44:40 How the Eagles’ coaching moves reflect on Nick Sirianni unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

  • The Eagles' offensive coordinator search, Jalen Hurts, and more with The Athletic's Michael Silver

    The Eagles' offensive coordinator search, Jalen Hurts, and more with The Athletic's Michael Silver
    Jan 28 2026
    Banged up offensive line? Underperforming star skill players? A quarterback who failed to lift his team? The 2025 edition of the Philadelphia Eagles checked all those boxes on offense. Sure, you could make a scapegoat out of the first-time offensive coordinator, but placing the blame squarely at the feet of Kevin Patullo would misrepresent the extent of the Eagles’ problems. The Athletic’s Michael Silver recently wrote an article about the Eagles’ offensive woes, and, in a conversation with The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane, framed these issues in the context of the franchise’s ongoing search for Patullo’s replacement. 00:00 Why is the Eagles' offensive coordinator search taking so long? 13:27 Factors that prompted Mike McDaniel and Brian Daboll to pass on Eagles 19:00 The Jalen Hurts effect 28:45 The national media perspective on Hurts 32:37 Could Jeff Stoutland's responsibilities be changing? unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts. Look for new episodes throughout the offseason, including breaking news updates and reactions. And here’s a link to Mike Silver’s article: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6976115/2026/01/16/eagles-offense-jalen-hurts-nick-sirianni-aj-brown/
