Another 2020 Eagles Coaching Staff Member Retained By Sirianni
New Eagles Head Coach Nick Sirianni is still going through the process of filling all the openings on his Coaching staff for the 2021 NFL season and after retaining Offensive Line Coach Jeff Stoutland, Sirianni will be keeping another familiar face from Doug Pederson s Coaching Staff
When the Eagles hired Aaron Moorehead before the 2020 season, he became the fourth different Wide Receiver Coach under Doug Pederson since he became Head Coach in 2016. Before coming to Philadelphia, Moorehead spent the previous seven years as a Wide Receivers Coach in College Football at Virginia Tech (2013-14), texas A&M (2015-17), and Vanderbilt (2018-19). Interesting to note that Moorehead worked with new Eagles Pass Game Coordinator Kevin Patullo at Texas A&M in 2017.
Coach David Culley
David Culley has left the Ravens for his dream job, and he is grateful to the people who helped him land it.
The Houston Texans officially announced Culley as their new head coach Friday, and during his introductory press conference, he thanked Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh for being a mentor and friend.
Culley spent the past two seasons as the Ravens Assistant Head Coach/Pass Coordinator/Wide Receivers Coach, and he also worked with Harbaugh for eight years (1999-2007) on Andy Reid s staff with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Getting his first chance to be a head coach at age 65, Culley said he would carry some of Harbaugh s philosophies with him to Houston. One those main values is honesty.
