Nick Sirianni did the easy part Monday.

He apologized for interacting, in a somewhat heated and confrontational way, with Philadelphia fans during Sunday’s 20-16 victory over Cleveland.

Cameras caught the fourth-year Eagles head coach shouting and gesturing to fans behind the Philly bench late in the fourth quarter. It included cupping a hand to his ear, as if he couldn’t hear their taunts. The fans had spent at least part of the game booing the Eagles' offense and even occasionally chanting “Fire Nick.”

"I was trying to bring energy and enthusiasm yesterday, and I'm sorry and disappointed at how my energy was directed at the end of the game," Sirianni explained Monday.
