John Eugene DeFilippo (born April 12, 1978) is an American football coach and former college player who is the quarterbacks coach for the Philadelphia Eagles of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for James Madison University.
DeFilippo was born in 1978 in Youngstown, Ohio. His father Gene DeFilippo was then offensive coordinator for the Youngstown State University football team, a position he would hold until 1979. In 1980, the DeFilippo family moved to Nashville, as Gene became offensive backfield coach at Vanderbilt. John later spent his childhood in Spartanburg, South Carolina from 1984 to 1987 as his father was athletic director at the University of South Carolina-Spartanburg, then in Lexington, Kentucky from 1987 to 1993, when his father was associate athletic director at the University of Kentucky.
In 1993, Gene DeFilippo became athletic director at Villanova University in Philadelphia. John DeFilippo enrolled at nearby Radnor High School in tenth grade and lived in a hotel with his father, from the summer to the early part of the school year. DeFilippo played quarterback on the Radnor football team. In his first start as a varsity football player, DeFilippo led Radnor to two touchdowns in the last 6:30 of Radnor's 16-14 victory over Penncrest High School. This win ended a 34-game losing streak for Radnor but would end up Radnor's only win of the season.
