Kyle Valero was hired by the Philadelphia Eagles as an offensive assistant during the 2024 offseason. A coaching veteran with 14 years of experience working in the NFL, Valero previously enjoyed stints with the Dallas Cowboys (2014-22) and Detroit Lions (2010-13).
From 2020-22, Valero served as the Cowboys' quality control/analytics coach while working closely with the team's wide receivers. In 2022, Valero helped Dallas rank fourth in the NFL in scoring (27.5 ppg) while mentoring CeeDee Lamb to top-six finishes among wide receivers with career highs in receptions (107), receiving yards (1,359), and touchdowns (nine).
During the 2021 campaign, Valero assisted in the offensive game-planning that helped produce the No. 1-ranked total offense (407.0 ypg) and scoring offense (31.2 ppg) in the league. Lamb also recorded his first 1,000-yard season (1,102) en route to his first of two Pro Bowl nods with Valero.
In 2020, the Cowboys' wide receiver corps finished third in the NFC in receiving yards (4,511) and first in receptions (413) despite undergoing four quarterback changes during the season. Valero helped Lamb set a franchise rookie record for receptions (74) while notching 934 yards, which stood as the second-most in team rookie history. Amari Cooper also finished with a career-high 92 receptions for 1,114 yards and five touchdowns.
Valero spent the 2019 season working as Dallas' assistant tight ends coach. The unit was highlighted by the return of Jason Witten, along with the continued emergence of Blake Jarwin and Dalton Schultz.
Valero assisted the Cowboys' wide receivers during his first five years (2014-18) with the team. With the midseason acquisition of Cooper in 2018, Dallas excelled during the second half of the year by ranking third across the NFL in receptions (228) as well as fifth in receiving yards (2,468).
In 2017, Valero supported a unit that featured Dez Bryant, who led the club in catches (69), receiving yards (838), and receiving touchdowns (six). In 2016, Dallas' receivers were led by Bryant, who earned his third Pro Bowl selection after leading the offense with eight touchdown receptions. In 2015, Terrance Williams stepped up in Bryant's absence due to injury and paced the team with a career-high 840 yards on 52 catches (16.2 avg.).
Valero worked with a young group of receivers in 2014, which included Bryant, who caught 88 passes for 1,320 yards (eighth in the NFL) and a league-leading 16 touchdowns to garner Pro Bowl recognition.
Prior to joining the Cowboys, Valero spent four years as an offensive assistant with the Lions, holding the titles of assistant wide receivers coach (2013) and offensive quality control coach (2010-12).
During his time with the Lions, Valero worked with Pro Football Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson. From 2010-13, Johnson was voted to the first four Pro Bowls of his career and received three consecutive first-team All-Pro selections (2011-13) from the Associated Press. In 2012, Johnson established the NFL single-season record with 1,964 receiving yards.
Before starting his NFL coaching career in Detroit, Valero spent two seasons as a student assistant at Florida State (2008-09).
Valero earned a degree in interdisciplinary studies from Florida State. He and his wife, Ali, have a daughter, Ava.
