Mike McDaniel is in position to become the Chargers’ new offensive coordinator. Zac Robinson, meanwhile, has reached an agreement to take on the OC gig with the Buccaneers.

Both of them were Eagles targets regarding their offensive coordinator vacancy. The team’s list of candidates to replace Kevin Patullo continues to grow, however. Philadelphia has submitted an interview request for Bears OC Declan Doyle, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.

This marks the first time Doyle has been linked to another team’s coordinator opening. A move to Philadelphia’s staff would technically not be a lateral one since Bears head coach Ben Johnson handled play-calling duties during his first season leading the team. The Eagles’ next OC will likely be tasked with calling plays, although head coach Nick Sirianni‘s level of involvement on offense in 2026 remains to be seen.

Doyle began his coaching career in 2016 as a student assistant at Iowa. After three years in that role, he made the jump to the NFL. Following a four-year Saints tenure, Doyle joined Sean Payton in Denver in 2023; he spent two seasons as the Broncos’ tight ends coach. Doyle’s first coordinator opportunity came during last year’s hiring cycle when he joined Johnson’s initial Bears staff.

The possibility of numerous Chicago departures was raised shortly before the coaching carousel began spinning in 2026. Eric Bieniemy is indeed set to reprise his role as the Chiefs’ offensive coordinator, and other changes could be coming soon as well. Doyle will also be a name to watch in the wake of Chicago’s highly successful campaign.
