Kevin Patullo enters his fourth season as a member of the Philadelphia Eagles' coaching staff. He originally joined the team as the passing game coordinator in 2021 and added the title of associate head coach in 2023.
In 2023, Patullo contributed to the seventh-best scoring offense (25.5 ppg) and eighth-best total offense (354.4 ypg) in the NFL. With his assistance, quarterback Jalen Hurts threw for career highs in passing yards (3,858) and passing touchdowns (23) en route to his second straight Pro Bowl. Wide receiver A.J. Brown collected Pro Bowl and Associated Press second-team All-Pro honors for the second year in a row after recording 1,456 yards (fifth in the NFL) and seven touchdowns on 106 catches (most by a wide receiver in Eagles history). Wide receiver DeVonta Smith also produced 81 receptions for 1,066 yards and a career-high-tying seven touchdowns.
In 2022, when the Eagles earned a Super Bowl LVII appearance after posting a 14-3 record in the regular season, Patullo aided a passing attack that ranked second in the league in yards per reception (12.1). He also aided the growth of Hurts, who was second in Associated Press NFL MVP voting after ranking second in touchdown-to-interception ratio (3.67) and third in passer rating (101.5) and yards per pass attempt (8.0). Additionally, Patullo helped Brown eclipse a 38-year franchise record with a career-high 1,496 receiving yards, while Smith registered a career-high 95 catches.
During his first season in Philadelphia in 2021, Patullo helped Hurts become just the eighth quarterback in league history to produce 3,000 passing yards (3,144) and 750 rushing yards (784) in a season. He also saw Smith establish an Eagles rookie record for receiving yards (916).
Prior to Philadelphia, Patullo spent three seasons with the Indianapolis Colts as a pass game specialist (2020) and wide receivers coach (2018-19), working on the same staff as Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni.
In 2020, Patullo was a key contributor to the Colts' offensive success. Indianapolis gave up the second-fewest sacks (21, tied) and third-fewest giveaways (15) in the NFL and ranked ninth in passing yards per attempt (7.6). Quarterback Philip Rivers also produced the eighth-highest completion percentage (68.0 pct.) and 10th-most passing yards (4,169) in the league.
During his first season with Indianapolis in 2018, Patullo supported an offense that averaged the sixth-most passing yards per game (278.8) in the NFL. Under his guidance, wide receiver T.Y. Hilton amassed 1,270 yards and six touchdowns on 76 receptions, including 916 yards over the final nine weeks of the regular season (114.6 yards per game).
Patullo was a senior offensive analyst at Texas A&M in 2017, working closely with the offensive staff on game planning and offensive strategy. He coached wide receiver Christian Kirk, a second-round pick by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2018 NFL Draft, who garnered second-team All-SEC honors after totaling 58 receptions for 730 yards and seven touchdowns.
From 2015-16, Patullo served as the New York Jets' quarterbacks coach. During the 2015 campaign, Patullo guided Ryan Fitzpatrick to a career-high 3,905 passing yards and a career-high, team-record 31 touchdowns. Fitzpatrick also registered a 100-plus passer rating in seven contests.
Patullo was the assistant wide receivers coach for the Tennessee Titans in 2014. He helped coach Kendall Wright to a productive year, featuring a career-high six touchdowns as well as the second-most receptions (57) and receiving yards (715) on the team.
Before he joined the Titans, Patullo spent three seasons (2010-12) as an offensive quality control coach with the Buffalo Bills and added assistant wide receivers coach to his title in 2012. With the Bills, he saw wide receiver Stevie Johnson record three consecutive seasons with 1,000-plus yards.
Patullo started coaching in the NFL with the Kansas City Chiefs as an offensive assistant and quality control coach (2007-08), including a stint with the team's wide receivers. In 2008, he helped wide receiver Dwayne Bowe eclipse 1,000 yards (1,022) for the first time in his career after leading all rookies in receptions (70) and yards (995) the previous season.
While earning his master's degree at Arizona, Patullo worked as an offensive graduate assistant from 2004-06. He began his coaching career as an offensive graduate assistant at his alma mater, South Florida (2003-04).
