Report: Eagles interview Nunzio Campanile for quarterbacks coach opening

The Philadelphia Eagles interviewed Syracuse offensive associate head coach/quarterbacks coach Nunzio Campanile for their own QB coach opening, according to a report from Cuse Nation.

The Eagles have had a quarterbacks coach vacancy since last week when Doug Nussmeier predictably followed Kellen Moore to New Orleans to be the Saints’ new offensive coordinator.

Campanile is a Fair Lawn, New Jersey native who long coached high school football in NJ before jumping to the college football ranks in 2018. Here’s a snapshot of his coaching experience:

2000–2009 — Don Bosco Preparatory High School offensive coordinator
2010-2017 — Bergen Catholic High School head coach
2018 — Rutgers running backs coach
2019 — Rutgers interim head coach/offensive coordinator/tight ends coach
2020-2022 — Rutgers tight ends coach
2023 — Syracuse interim head coach/tight ends coach
2024 — Syracuse offensive associate head coach/quarterbacks coach

As you can see, Campanile has no NFL coaching experience. And his QB coaching experience appears to be limited.

That said, the Orange had the NCAA’s top passing offense last year with 370 yards per game. Campanile seemed to get the best out of Kyle McCord:

With full trust behind him, McCord led Division I in passing yards (4,326) while rewriting the Orange’s single-season passing records in 2024. The quarterback led Syracuse to nine regular-season wins, tied for its most in a regular season this century. McCord’s success coincides with Syracuse sparking a turnaround in Brown’s first season at the helm following eight years of mediocrity under Dino Babers.

Campanile is the first known candidate for the Eagles’ QB coach opening.
