Despite the fact his coaching career only began in 2023, there is some buzz that he could be a future head coach. Mannion was credited for the development of Jordan Love, who finished the 2025 season with a 101.2 passer rating. He also had backup quarterback Malik Willis ready to play in relief on Love.

Side note: Mannion was my first locker room interview ever. Didn’t know what to do or how to initiate an interview and I just opened the convo with his days at Foothill HS (watched him play there).

He was awesome and broke down some of McVay’s game plan. https://t.co/X4buAKQZlv

Tell us in the comments: How would you grade this hire? Are you happy with Mannion or did you prefer the Eagles go in a different direction?
