The Philadelphia Eagles are in need of an innovative and fresh set of eyes for their franchise quarterback Carson Wentz. LSU just happens to have the best young play-caller in the business.
It’s unknown whether Joe Brady was a candidate for the Eagles offensive coordinator job, but according to Adam Schefter, Brady will be named the Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator.
LSU’s passing game coordinator Joe Brady has told people today that he is planning to return to the NFL and the Carolina Panthers, per league sources.

The 30-year-old Brady has prior NFL experience from his time with the Saints and he’s emerged as one of the hottest offensive play-callers on either level of big-time football.
Brady recently won the Broyles Award, given annually to the top assistant coach in the nation.
Top-ranked LSU led the nation with 564 total yards per game and was second in the country with 397 passing yards per game.
Under Brady, Joe Burrows improved dramatically, winning the Heisman Trophy and ascending to the likely No. 1 pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.
