Frazier, 34, is entering his ninth NFL season in 2026 but has never run a position group, making the assignment notable given the “tall task” of teaching Hurts fundamentals and adapting to Mannion’s likely heavier reliance on play-action passes. His background includes stints with the Colts (assistant quarterbacks coach, 2021-22; interim offensive coordinator in 2022), the Panthers (2023), and the Dolphins (2024 under Mike McDaniel).
The move comes as the Eagles pursued possible alternatives, with reports linking them to Cardinals passing game specialist Connor Senger and veteran coach Greg Olson. While Loeffler brought two decades of QB coaching experience, the organization opted to trust Frazier to guide Hurts through new footwork and drop points in a transitional offensive approach.
Sirianni’s connection to Frazier runs deep, dating to their shared time in Indianapolis and reaffirmed when Sirianni rehired Frazier as passing game coordinator last season. The change aims to preserve continuity for Hurts while introducing a fresh dynamic in the quarterback room and play-caller relationship with Mannion.
