The Philadelphia Eagles hired former Minnesota Vikings offensive coordinator Bill Musgrave as their quarterbacks coach, multiple media outlets reported Tuesday.

Musgrave, 46, takes over for former Eagles quarterbacks coach Bill Lazor, who left to become the Miami Dolphins’ offensive coordinator last week.

Musgrave will work alongside head coach Chip Kelly and offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur in continuing the development of starting quarterback Nick Foles.

Musgrave spent the previous three seasons with the Vikings, and had previously worked for the Atlanta Falcons, Washington Redskins, Jacksonville Jaguars, Carolina Panthers and Oakland Raiders. He was an offensive assistant with the Eagles in 1998.
