One of the most respected offensive line coaches in the country, Jeff Stoutland enters his 13th season with the Philadelphia Eagles, making him the longest-tenured member of the coaching staff. Carrying 42 years of experience, he is the first offensive line coach since the 1970 NFL merger to produce Pro Bowlers in 12 consecutive seasons with the same team.
In total, Stoutland has led seven players to 26 Pro Bowls – guard Brandon Brooks (2018-20), guard Landon Dickerson (2023-25), tackle Lane Johnson (2018-20, '23-25), center Cam Jurgens (2025), center Jason Kelce (2015, '17, '20-24), guard Evan Mathis (2014-15) and tackle Jason Peters (2014-17). Kelce (seven), Brooks (three) and Dickerson (three) have each received the most Pro Bowl nods at their position in franchise history, while Peters is the only Eagles tackle to earn four straight Pro Bowl berths.
Additionally, Stoutland has assisted five players to 15 All-Pro honors – Johnson (2017, '21-24), Kelce (2017-19, '21-23), tackle Jordan Mailata (2024), Mathis (2013) and Peters (2013-14). Under Stoutland's tutelage, Kelce became the first center in NFL history to win a Super Bowl Championship and collect six first-team All-Pro accolades during their career.
Five of Philadelphia's seven all-time offensive lines that featured three Pro Bowlers happened under Stoutland – 2014 (Kelce, Mathis, Peters); 2019 (Brooks, Johnson, Kelce); 2022-23 (Dickerson, Johnson, Kelce); and 2024 (Dickerson, Johnson, Jurgens). Stoutland has coached six of the Eagles' nine offensive lines with multiple All-Pros as well – 2013 (Mathis, Peters); 2017, 2021-23 (Johnson, Kelce); and 2024 (Johnson, Mailata).
During his time in Philadelphia, Stoutland has mentored three offensive lines that contributed to Super Bowl appearances in 2017, 2022 and 2024, including Super Bowl LII and Super Bowl LIX victories. His groups have also blocked for the NFL's rushing leader on two occasions, paving the way for LeSean McCoy in 2013 (1,607) and Saquon Barkley in 2024 (2,005).
Each of the Eagles' five starting offensive linemen earned All-Pro votes during the 2024 season, when Philadelphia defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. The Eagles set a league record with 3,866 rushing yards in the regular season and playoffs, including the most combined rushing yards ever by an individual from Barkley (2,504), who was named the Associated Press NFL Offensive Player of the Year. Recognized as a finalist for AP NFL MVP, Barkley became just the ninth player in history to enter the 2,000-yard rushing club with a league-leading 2,005 yards in the regular season.
Stoutland's unit has helped the Eagles establish numerous franchise records, including regular-season wins (14 in 2022 and 2024), points (477 in 2022), total touchdowns (59 in 2022), scrimmage touchdowns (57 in 2022), rushing yards (3,048 in 2021), rushing touchdowns (32 in 2022, tied for fourth in NFL history), third-down success rate (48.0 pct. in 2023), fourth-down conversions (22 in 2022) and red zone efficiency (67.8 pct. in 2022).
While coaching at Alabama, Stoutland's 2012 offensive line was viewed by many as the best in college football history. The group featured a pair of first-team All-Americans – center Barrett Jones and guard Chance Warmack – who helped pave the way to the Crimson Tide's second consecutive BCS National Championship. Under Stoutland's guidance, Jones won the Rimington Trophy (first player in school history voted as the nation's top center) in 2012 and Outland Trophy (nation's top interior lineman) in 2011. Center William Vlachos also garnered first-team All-SEC honors in 2011.
Prior to joining Alabama, Stoutland oversaw the offensive line at Miami (FL) from 2007-10 and was the team's interim head coach in the 2010 Sun Bowl. In his final year, he helped the Hurricanes lead the ACC in total offense (421.3 ypg) and finish third in rushing offense (182.5 ypg). Guard Brandon Washington and tackles Orlando Franklin and Jason Fox each collected all-conference honors under Stoutland before moving on to the NFL.
Stoutland worked with six All-Big Ten players throughout his tenure at Michigan State (2000-06), including five who went to the pros – tackle Ulish Booker, centers Kyle Cook and Chris Morris, and guards Tupe Peko and William Whitticker. The Spartans' offensive line played a key role in the nation's fifth-ranked offense in 2005. Furthermore, Michigan State ranked 10th in the NCAA in rushing and allowed only eight sacks in 2004.
Stoutland spent three years as an assistant at Syracuse, coaching the tight ends from 1997-98 before taking over the offensive line in 1999. During that stretch, he developed first-team All-Big East tackle Mark Baniewicz as well as tight ends Roland Williams and Kaseem Sinceno.
From 1993-96, Stoutland coached the offensive line at Cornell. He also held two stints with his alma mater, Southern Connecticut State, serving as the offensive coordinator (1988-92) and inside linebackers coach (1984-85). Between his stops with the Owls, Stoutland worked as a graduate assistant at Syracuse during the 1986-87 seasons.
A three-year starter at inside linebacker at Southern Connecticut State, Stoutland earned All-America honors as a senior and was a team captain. He earned his bachelor's degree in physical education in 1984 and added a master's degree in exercise physiology in 1986.
A native of New York City, he and his wife, Allison, who is a published children's author, have two children, Jake and Madison.
