Major controversies have been caused by Nick Sirianni’s awkward message to the Eagles, as his future with the team remains stagnant.
According to reports, Nick Sirianni will probably stay as the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles even after the team’s disastrous 1-5 regular season finale and disastrous playoff collapse against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
It was reported on Saturday by Adam Schefter of ESPN that “all signs point to him staying with the Eagles.”
At the half of Saturday’s Ravens-Texans game, Schefter stated, “Right now, Nick Sirianni has a job, and it’s trending that it’ll stay that way.”
This week, Sirianni and NFC East rival Mike McCarthy are the only ones who have avoided the bench due to playoff embarrassments. McCarthy’s Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers 48-32 in the postseason, but Schefter earlier this week stated that McCarthy is not anticipated to be fired.
Even if Sirianni makes it through, though, the defense—which finished 26th in yardage and 30th in points allowed—will probably see some changes.
According to reports, Nick Sirianni will probably stay the Philadelphia Eagles’ head coach.
Co-defensive coordinators Sean Desai and Matt Patricia are unlikely to stay in Philadelphia, despite the lack of an official announcement.
In addition, several veterans—including defensive end Brandon Graham, defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, and center Jason Kelce—are anticipated to leave the team in free agency or retire. These players were important components of Philadelphia’s lone Super Bowl-winning squad in 2017–18.
Jeffrey Lurie, the owner, and Sirianni were scheduled to speak on Friday.
It’s interesting to note that, at 34-17, Sirianni is the only coach in Eagles history to lead the team to three playoff berths in his first three seasons and has the best winning percentage (.667) in team history.
However, Lurie has never shied away from firing a coach; he did so with Andy Reid in 2012 and Doug Pederson in 2020, when the team won the Super Bowl.
