Kevin Koger was named the Atlanta Falcons tight ends coach on Feb. 2, 2024.

Koger comes to Atlanta after spending three seasons (2021-23) as tight ends coach for the Los Angeles Chargers.

In 2023, Koger coached tight end Donald Parham Jr. to career highs in receptions (27), receiving yards (285) and receiving touchdowns (four). Gerald Everett caught 51 passes in 2023, the second-most receptions in a single season in his career. His 51 receptions were eighth among tight ends in the AFC and second on the team, behind only Keenan Allen with 108.

In his first two seasons (2021-22) with Los Angeles, Koger was part of an offense staff that produced a top-five passing offense and top-10 total offense each year. The Chargers offense ranked third in passing offense (269.6 yards per game) and ninth in total offense (359.3 yards per game) in 2022. Despite injuries, his tight ends combined for 83 receptions on the season, 10th among tight end groups in the NFL in 2022. Koger coached Everett to career bests with 58 receptions and 555 yards on the season, while tying a single-season career high with four touchdown catches.

In 2021, Koger was part of an offensive staff that coached the unit to lead in the AFC in passing offense (282.4), rank fourth in the NFL in total offense (390.2) and No. 5 in the league in scoring offense (27.9 points per game). The tight ends combined for eight of quarterback Justin Herbert's record-setting 38 passing touchdowns. Jared Cook emerged as a reliable threat for Herbert, moving the chains on 13 of his 15 receptions on third and fourth downs. The offensive unit single-season team records for first downs (401) and passing touchdowns (38) in 2021.

The Toledo, Ohio, native joined the Chargers after two seasons (2019-20) as an offensive quality control coach with the Packers, helping Green Bay secure back-to-back appearances in the NFC Championship Game. As a primary assistant to then-Packers Offensive Coordinator Nathaniel Hackett in Green Bay, Koger also contributed to the instruction of the tight ends group, helping develop Robert Tonyan to break out in 2020 with 52 catches for 586 yards and 11 receiving scores, which led all NFL tight ends in touchdown catches.

Koger was an All-Ohio selection as a senior at Toledo Whitmer High in Toledo, Ohio. He went on to play collegiately at the University of Michigan and graduated in 2012 with a bachelor's degree in sport management. Koger was a four-year letter-winner (2008-11) and three-year starter, logging 47 games played with 30 starts at tight end. He was voted a team captain entering his senior season and ended his Wolverines career by earning honorable mention All-Big Ten recognition from the conference coaches and the media. Koger was featured on the preseason watch list for the John Mackey Award as a junior, which is annually given to the top tight end in college football.

Following his graduation from Michigan in 2012, Koger spent one season coaching the tight ends and wide receivers at Saline (Mich.) High.  He then broke into the collegiate coaching ranks at his alma mater, the University of Michigan, in 2013. In two seasons in Ann Arbor, Mich., Koger's graduate assistant role featured work with the tight ends group and contributions to the special teams units. His work involved the development of 2013 All-Big Ten Freshman Team selection Jake Butt, who went on to later win the John Mackey Award.

Prior to Eastern Kentucky, Koger spent one season (2015) as an offensive quality control coach at the University of Tennessee. In his lone season in Knoxville, Tenn., primarily working with the wide receivers and offensive line, the Volunteers posted a 9-4 record, with an Outback Bowl victory.

After one year with Tennessee, Koger spent three seasons at Eastern Kentucky University (2016-18), working with the wide receivers group and adding special teams coordinator responsibilities in his final season with the Colonels. In his lone season as special teams coordinator, the kickoff return unit led the Ohio Valley Conference with a mark of 23.2 yards-per-return, while the punt return unit also blocked a pair of opponent punts. Koger's first two seasons in Richmond, Ky., centered around developing the receiving corps for eventual NFL quarterback Tim Boyle, who lead the OVC in passing yards and completion percentage in 2017. That same season, Koger tutored wide receiver Ryan Markush to rank No. 2 in the conference in touchdown receptions (nine) and third in receiving yards (745), earning All-OVC recognition.

Koger and his wife, Tiffany, have three sons, Kingston, Hayes and Miles.
