Tight Ends Coach
Biography
2024 will mark Jason Michael's 22nd season as an NFL coach and his fourth with the Eagles. The former Tennessee Titans offensive coordinator has overseen the tight ends group for five teams before he came to Philadelphia with Nick Sirianni in 2021. Since that season, Dallas Goedert is third among NFL tight ends in yards per catch (12.5), fifth in yards after the catch (1,125), and sixth in receiving yards (2,124). Backup tight end Jack Stoll was the only undrafted rookie to make the opening day roster in 2021 and has played more than 1,300 snaps on offense in his career.
During the 2019-20 seasons, Michael served as the Indianapolis Colts' tight ends coach, working under Eagles head coach and former Colts offensive coordinator Nick Sirianni. Over that two-year stretch, Indianapolis' tight ends combined to rank fifth in the AFC among their position group in receptions (168, 10th in the NFL) and yards (1,862, ninth in the NFL).
In 2020, Michael helped the Colts post the 10th-ranked offense (378.1 ypg) in the league. He also coached the tight ends to a productive year in 2019, with Jack Doyle earning a Pro Bowl nod after starting all 16 games and totaling 43 receptions for 448 yards and four touchdowns.
Michael served as the tight ends coach for the Arizona Cardinals during the 2018 season, when Ricky Seals-Jones registered career highs in both receptions (34) and receiving yards (343).
