The Minnesota Vikings reportedly have found their next offensive coordinator by reportedly hiring Philadelphia Eagles quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo.

Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, DeFilippo will take over the role vacated by Pat Shurmur.

Shurmur was hired as head coach of the New York Giants on Jan. 22. Minnesota's offense finished last season ranked 10th in the NFL with 23.9 points per game.

DeFilippo worked with Carson Wentz and Nick Foles in Philadelphia during the 2017 season. The duo combined to throw for 3,833 yards and 38 touchdowns in the regular season.
