<a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/brian-johnson-131847/">Brian Johnson</a> won’t return as the Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator, according to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer.



“Brian Johnson won’t be returning to the Eagles as offensive coordinator, NFL sources said, confirming (Derrick Gunn),” <a href="https://twitter.com/Jeff_McLane/status/1749789164365545476">McLane wrote on Twitter</a>. “Nick Sirianni will have to replace both his OC and DC. Colts OC Jim Bob Cooter was mentioned as a possibility, but he won’t be among the top candidates, I’m being told.”



With that, the Eagles are expected to fill the OC and defensive coordinator roles with new coaches under <a href="https://www.on3.com/db/coach/nick-sirianni-133213/">Nick Sirianni</a>. <a href="https://www.on3.com/pro/news/nick-sirianni-all-signs-point-eagles-head-coach-return-philadelphia-2024-job-security/">All indications early in the week were Sirianni returning</a> as Eagles head coach amid his job speculation.



Johnson joined the Eagles in 2021 as the quarterbacks coach, reuniting with Jalen Hurts. Johnson knew the Eagles’ quarterback since his youth.



After serving as the QBs coach for two seasons, Johnson was promoted to offensive coordinator in 2023 following Shane Steichen’s departure for the Indianapolis Colts head coaching gig.



However, with steps back on offense, particularly down the stretch, Johnson and Sirianni were criticized, as well as Hurts. But, the head coach is coming back based on previous reporting, while the staff gets a facelift.



Johnson played quarterback at Utah from 2004-08 and turned to coaching in 2010 at his alma mater. He served as the QBs coach and eventually the OC under Kyle Whittingham. He moved to Mississippi State in 2014, coaching QBs.



Following three seasons, Johnson became the OC and QBs coach at Houston in 2017 before going to Florida in 2018 as the QBs coach. He was promoted to OC in 2020, coaching Kyle Trask to his best season in college.



With that, Johnson caught the eye of Sirianni and crew and was hired in Philadelphia the following year. The former Eagles offensive coordinator received head coaching interest via interviews this cycle and it remains to be seen where he’ll end up in 2024.



Sirianni is 34-17 in three seasons with the Eagles and has a 2-3 playoff record. He’s led Philadelphia to the playoffs each season of his tenure, including Super Bowl LVII last year.



Philadelphia lost 38-35 to the Kansas City Chiefs, putting 2023 as a boom or bust year for the Eagles.
