Eagles News: The Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni relationship “is still a work in progress”
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles links ... We’ve seen Jalen Hurts on the sideline with Nick Sirianni, and they were not going at one another. But there is definitely a difference in personality. The way I would describe it: The relationship is still a work in progress. Last year there was some disconnect between them, due to their personalities. Nick, we’ve seen, is a very emotional guy. Jalen is a very private guy. They are different human beings, which is fine. You don’t all have to be the same, but you do have to be on the same page when it comes to what you want to do on offense.” [...] “Brian Johnson was last year’s offensive coordinator — he’s since been fired and is now with the Commanders. Johnson had a great relationship with Hurts, which is part of the reason why he was promoted before the 2023 season after Shane Steichen left to take the Colts job. But, according to a few people in Philadelphia, while Johnson was the OC, it was 100 percent Sirianni’s offense you were watching last season, and Sirianni wanted to do it his way. That meant a conservative, run-first approach, especially when they got near the red zone. And last year, opposing defenses were ready for it. Johnson wasn’t calling plays. He was solely focused on giving Sirianni the offense that Sirianni wanted to run.”
