Eagles’ offensive coordinator Kellen Moore has married Julie Wilson for over a decade. Despite immense scrutiny, the long-term couple stays away from the limelight.
A native of Prosser, Washington, Kellen played four years of collegiate football at Boise State before going undrafted in 2012.
He played six years in the NFL, with his first three years coming with the Detroit Lions and later years with the Cowboys.
Moore also got his first coaching role with the Dallas Cowboys in 2018 as a quarterbacks coach before he became their offensive coordinator.
He left the Cowboys after the 2022 season and joined the Chargers, with whom he worked for a season.

In 2024, Moore joined the Philadelphia Eagles, and now there’s a good chance he could return to Dallas but as their head coach.
After five seasons as the Cowboys‘ head coach, Mike McCarthy parted ways with the Jerry Jones team as they failed to make the playoffs this season.
Before being linked with the Cowboys‘ head coaching role, Moore was also tipped to fill the same vacant position with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Moore’s Dallas roots could tempt Jerry Jones to pick him as the next head coach of the historic franchise.
So, can the Eagles keep their offensive coordinator, or will the Cowboys get their tenth head coach in Kellen Moore in the Jerry Jones era?
Kellen Moore and His Wife, Julie Wilson, Are High School Sweethearts!
The Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore met his wife, Julie Wilson, at Prosser High School. The two began dating when Kellen was in his sophomore year and Julie was a senior.
Like Kellen, Julie was also an athlete during her high school days. A three-sport athlete, Julie was crowned the valedictorian at Prosser.
The high school sweetheart tied the knot in July 2011 before Kellen even made it to the NFL. The wedding took place at the St. Regis in Park City, Utah.
Three years after their wedding, the couple became first-time parents in October 2014 after the birth of their son, Kyler Moore.
Speaking to KTVB in 2015, Julie said she took a two-month-old Kyler to his first NFL game in October 2014 while Kellen was a quarterback for the Lions.
She added that the pair hung out in the Lions’ then-starting quarterback Matthew Stafford‘s luxury suite.
Julie added that becoming a mother had been a lot of fun, but it came with sacrificing her sleep.
In October 2024, the couple recorded a Facebook video for the Philadelphia Eagles initiative Light The World Giving Machine.
Kellen and Julie explained that the machine isn’t a typical machine filled with candy and chocolates but contains cards representing items that can be donated to charities locally or globally.
Julie encouraged the viewers to bring their kids to the event so they could learn what it’s like to be part of the community.
Kelle and Julie are also parents to two daughters, Halle and Madelyn. However, details surrounding their birth remain away from the public.
