“I feel he’s developed as he’s grow to be a head coach. There’s issues, you recognize, he had some vocal stuff on the sidelines, however he’s addressed stuff with the group when he’s unsuitable, and I feel that makes him human, makes him susceptible, and I feel it makes guys talk extra successfully with him.

Eagles gamers made an effort final season to encourage the top coach to be himself, and he appears to have taken their recommendation. Now that Sirianni has signed a brand new contract preserving him in Philadelphia for the foreseeable future, it’s good to listen to how a lot guys respect him.
