The Philadelphia Eagles are hiring Cleveland Browns national scout Charles Walls as their new director of player personnel, according to a report from Kimberley A. Martin.
The Eagles previously employed two directors of player personnel — Ian Cunningham and Brandon Brown — before they were poached away from Philly earlier this year. Cunningham had more of a focus on college scouting while Brown was more involved in pro personnel.
Given Walls’ background on the college side, he figures to be a replacement for Cunningham’s old role. Then again, it’s currently unclear if the Eagles plan to hire another director of player personnel to replicate their previous setup or if Walls will take on an expanded role.
