Nick Sirianni, Eagles face questions after late-season collapse, playoff exit - ESPN

TAMPA, Fla. — Eagles coach Nick Sirianni faced questions about his future following Monday night's wild-card playoff loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers that capped a stunning late-season collapse in which Philadelphia lost six of its last seven games following a 10-1 start.

Quarterback Jalen Hurts did not answer directly when asked if he wanted Sirianni back for another season.

«I didn't know he was going anywhere,» Hurts said.

When asked what his confidence level is in Sirianni to fix the team, Hurts said: «I have a ton of confidence in everyone in this building. It's just a matter of us going out there and playing clean football. That is something that
