The arrival of Hunkele and Rath comes after Shaun Huls, the former director of high performance, and Shireen Mansoori, the former director of rehabilitation, were reportedly let go by the organization.

Hunkele spent 14 seasons with the Minnesota Vikings as the coordinator of rehabilitation/assistant athletic trainer for the organization. According to Eagles.com, Hunkele assisted in the evaluation and care of all injuries sustained and helped to implement proactive treatment and rehabilitation programs. This is a bit of a homecoming for Hunkele, as he is from Reading, Pa.

Rath has spent 11 seasons in the league. He recently worked for the Los Angeles Rams as their director of strength training and performance (2017-19). Prior to joining the Rams, Rath worked with the Miami Dolphins (2016) and Detroit Lions (2009-15). During his time with the Lions, Rath worked with Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, who served as head coach, and new defensive line coach Matt Burke, who also worked with him in Miami.

Rath was found not guilty on three counts of misdemeanor sexual battery in July, according to ESPN reporter Lindsey Thiry.

The Eagles declined comment on Rath’s legal history. However, an Eagles spokesperson said the team did its due diligence on Rath as it does with any candidate.

An NFL spokesman told NJ Advance Media that the league considers the matter closed.

Hunkele and Rath will lead the sports medicine and performance groups moving forward. The groups include the training staff, the strength and conditioning unit, nutrition services and sports science.

Jeremiah Washburn was promoted to director of player personnel/senior defensive assistant. Washburn joined the team last season as an advanced projects coordinator. Washburn has been in the NFL since 2002. He has served as an offensive line coach with the Lions, Dolphins and Chicago Bears. He also has worked within the Baltimore Ravens’ scouting department. He is the son of former Eagles defensive line coach Jim Washburn.

Washburn is essentially replacing Andy Weidl with the director of player personnel role. Weidl was promoted to the vice president of player personnel last offseason after Joe Douglas left for the Jets general manager job.

Former Eagles linebacker Connor Barwin was previously announced as a special assistant to general manager Howie Roseman. Barwin will be joined by former teammates, Brent Celek and Darren Sproles, who were both hired as personnel consultants.

Barwin played 10 seasons in the NFL for the Texans, Eagles, Rams and Giants. He went to the Pro Bowl in 2014 during his second season in Philadelphia. He was released by the Eagles following the 2016 season. Barwin announced his retirement last season.

Celek played all 11 of his NFL seasons with the Eagles. Celek retired from the game shortly after the Eagles won Super Bowl LII in 2018.

Sproles moved into the top 5 of the all-time all-purpose yards list this past season. The running back and punt returner played 15 seasons in the NFL for the Chargers, Saints and Eagles. He made the Pro Bowl as a returner during his first three seasons with the Eagles (2014-16). Sproles, who is the most recent retiree of the newly hired trio, announced the end of his playing days in December.
