Pederson’s final season was rocky, a 4-11-1 campaign including the demotion of turnover-prone quarterback Carson Wentz and a highly criticized decision to abandon quarterback Jalen Hurts in the final quarter of his season finale in favor of veteran journeyman Nate Sudfeld.
In five seasons, Pederson went 42-37 (.531) with 2020 marking his second losing season. The Eagles advanced to the playoffs in three of the five – each year from 2017 to 2019 – and won the Super Bowl with backup quarterback Nick Foles after Wentz tore his ACL in December.
"As difficult as it it to say goodbye, I will always look back on my time here with appreciation and respect," Pederson said in a statement. "Although I am disappointed that this chapter of my career has come to an end, I am extremely proud of what we accomplished together."
