According to Geoff Mosher of Inside the Birds, the Eagles are retaining wide receivers coach Aaron Moorhead. That will give them some much-needed stability at that position.
The Eagles have reportedly hired former Wisconsin DB Jay Valai as an assistant coach. Valai joined the University of Houston coaching staff just 12 days ago.

The Eagles have reportedly hired former Jets DBs coach Dennard Wilson for the same position in Philadelphia. Wilson, 38, has been coaching in the NFL since 2012.

The Eagles have hired former Chip Kelly assistant Michael Clay as their new special teams coordinator, the team confirmed on Friday. Clay was with the Eagles in 2014-15 before joining Chipper in San Francisco.
Press Taylor has reportedly already found a new gig. He'll be joining Frank Reich and Mike Groh in Indy.

Add another former Colts assistant to Sirianni's staff. The Eagles are reportedly hiring TEs coach Jason Michael, who worked with Sirianni the last two seasons in Indianapolis.
The Eagles are reportedly hiring Florida OC Brian Johnson to be their QBs coach. Johnson, 33, is a highly regarded young offensive coach, who played at Utah and helped Dak Prescott become an NFL draft pick and star.

Eagles special teams coordinator Dave Fipp is reportedly joining the staff in Detroit. Fipp had been with the Eagles since the 2013 season and stayed with the team during the switch from Chip Kelly to Doug Pederson. Some of Fipp's early units were great but that level dropped in recent seasons.

Press Taylor is gone. Not much of a surprise but Taylor reportedly won't be retained by the Eagles for 2021. They will need to find a new QBs coach.
Longtime Eagle Duce Staley is leaving. After the Eagles didn't hire him as their next head coach, Staley asked out of his contract and will reportedly be joining the Lions as their running backs coach/assistant head coach.

We know of two candidates for the Eagles’ vacant offensive coordinator job: Chargers OC Shane Steichen and Broncos RBs coach Curtis Modkins.
Colts DBs coach Jonathan Gannon is the Eagles' new DC. He worked with Sirianni for the past three seasons. Gannon reportedly had interest elsewhere but the Eagles were able to snag him.
