Philadelphia Eagles fans are still trying to process the recent news that offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland is leaving the franchise after 13 years with the team.

His impact on this franchise and our community is immeasurable, and it's safe to say he will always be welcome in the City of Brotherly Love."
Eagles say goodbye to Jeff Stoutland after 13 seasons
Stoutland was such an important piece to the franchise after joining the organization in 2013. He helped so many talented offensive linemen, such as Jordan Mailata, Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, Evan Mathis, Jason Peters, Brandon Brooks, and many more.
This offseason began with rumors that Stoutland might retire or leave the team in some capacity. A report came out last week stating that he was stripped of his run game coordinator title in the middle of the 2025 season due to struggles in the running game.
Many believe this is just one of many changes coming to the offensive coaching staff after the hiring of new offensive coordinator Sean Mannion. The quarterbacks coach's job is to conduct interviews for the opening, despite no official word on whether Scot Loeffler is still on the team.
