Tom Donahoe is leaving the Eagles’ front office, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Donahoe’s contract expired, and the senior executive told the Eagles in a meeting that it was time to move on, McLane reports. The team and Donahoe declined comment to McLane.

Donahoe, 75, had worked for General Manager Howie Roseman since 2012 and served as a mentor for vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl.

Donahoe worked for the Steelers and Bills, gaining three decades of NFL experience before arriving in Philadelphia. He rose up the ranks in Pittsburgh, serving as the Steelers’ director of football operations from 1993-99, and Donahoe was the Bills’ president/General Manager from 2001-05.

Roseman is reshaping the front office, with the departures of senior scouts Ian Cunningham and Brandon Brown for promotions as assistant General Managers with the Bears and Giants, respectively. Vice president of football operations Catherine Raiche is expected to join the Browns.

The Eagles reportedly also fired director of scouting operations Casey Weidl, Andy Weidl’s brother, as well as player personnel executive T.J. McCreight, southwest area scout Shawn Heinlen and scouting assistant Evan Pritt.

I am speculating that Howie trading away all that draft capital was the straw that broke the camels back.

I predict that Tom goes with Andy Weidl.

Or goes south, where it's warmer: TB, MIA, NO...

Dude is 75 and has some golfing and fishing to do.

Don't need no more long winters in Buffalo or Pittsburgh.

He will always be remembered for this:

Maybe a writer can write a nice story about him.

Thanks, Tom.

Was just going to say wasn't it Donohoe who had the run in with Howie last year over Milton Williams pick.

Not my read. Your 4th bullet is my opinion. He's 75 and he's retiring.
