The Philadelphia Eagles are bringing former assistant offensive line coach Greg Austin back to Philly, according to a report from Eliot Shorr-Parks.
Austin could seemingly replace former Eagles run game specialist/assistant offensive line coach T.J. Paganetti, who recently left the Birds to join Kellen Moore’s New Orleans Saints coaching staff.
Here’s a snapshot of Austin’s coaching experience:
2010-2012 — Oregon graduate assistant
2013-2015 — Philadelphia Eagles assistant offensive line coach
2016-2017 — UCF offensive line coach
2018-2021 — Nebraska offensive line coach
2022 — FIU offensive line coach/run game coordinator
2023 — Jacksonville Jaguars offensive quality control coach
2024 — Jacksonville Jaguars assistant offensive line coach
As you can see, Austin followed Chip Kelly from Oregon to Philly in 2013. He overlapped with Eagles run game coordinator/offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland for three seasons before returning to the college football ranks. Austin then returned to the NFL to work on Doug Pederson’s coaching staff for two seasons.
One would imagine Stoutland has a big say (and rightfully so) in picking the Eagles’ assistant offensive line coach. And so now he has Austin back as his assistant again.
