More details on the Nick Sirianni-Jalen Carter sideline interaction

I’ve seen people ask what the deal was with Nick Sirianni being involved in a seemingly heated sideline interaction during the Philadelphia Eagles’ win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, so, let’s take a look at that.

It started with Jalen Carter committing a very unnecessary (literally “unnecessary roughness”) special teams penalty that almost wiped out a Steelers punt and extended their final drive, which could’ve made it a one-score game, before the flag was ultimately enforced after the change in possession. Carter’s blunder forced the Eagles to take over at their own three-yard line instead of their own six-yard line.
