People have been asking for months what Nick Sirianni’s role is as the Eagles’ ‘CEO’ head coach. After a very bizarre six weeks to open the 2024 NFL season, it appears that his job is to be the team’s official lightning rod.
We learned a little bit about Sirianni’s penchant for taking responsibility for mistakes, and issues that weren’t actually his, last year. In late-December, against the Seahawks, Jalen Hurts and A.J. Brown got a bit too creative on a deep ball attempt that ended up sealing the team’s loss. Afterwards, Sirianni said that it was his call because he had hoped Brown would draw a defensive pass interference call.
