It’s no secret that New York Giants’ head coach Pat Shurmur has ties to the Philadelphia Eagles. He served on the Eagles’ coaching staff from 1999 to 2008. During that time, he coached the tight ends, offensive line, and quarterbacks.
His real claim to fame came in 2013, when he was hired as the Birds’ offensive coordinator. Shurmur retained that position until 2015, when he became the team’s interim head coach.
Now, he will be coaching against his former team in what feels like a must-win game for both teams.
Recently, the Philly media caught up with their old friend via telephone.
