US EditionEagles to Hire Chris Kuper as Jeff Stoutland's Replacement as Offensive Line Coach, Report Says
Chris Kuper replaces Jeff Stoutland as Eagles offensive line coach amid staff overhaul and roster challenges, joining three other new offensive hires this season.
- On Monday, the Philadelphia Eagles hired Chris Kuper as offensive line coach, replacing Jeff Stoutland who left last week after 13 seasons.
- Because Stoutland would have lost run game coordinator duties, he decided to step away after the role was removed, prompting the Eagles to seek a new coach.
- A former Broncos starter, Kuper played 79 of 90 NFL games and coached the Vikings' O-line for four seasons, overlapping with Sean Mannion, before joining the Eagles.
- The move signals the Eagles' shift toward a west-coast offense under Sean Mannion and includes hiring Josh Grizzard and Ryan Mahaffey in key offensive coordinator roles last month.
- Because Minnesota's line was injury-plagued, Kuper inherits a unit that used 25 different combinations last season and faced criticism over interior play, while Eagles' health and personnel questions remain after Stoutland's departure.
