The franchise QB asked a Giants assistant for help last season, according to an ESPN.com report that details a rift between the two greater than imagined. Can these wounds be healed? Does it matter?
Have Jalen Hurts’ independence and other team issues rendered Nick Sirianni irrelevant with the Eagles?
“Jalen and I are in a really good place,” Sirianni, in his Thursday news conference, told Tim McManus, one of the ESPN reporters who wrote the story — a story to which Sirianni and Hurts would not contribute.“Every relationship that you have needs work, with everybody,” Sirianni continued, “and we’ve always continued to try to work at that.”This is not to imply that CEO coaches cannot win.
It feels like we can just stop pretending that Sirianni is Hurts’ boss in any capacity beyond the big decisions, like going for it on fourth down. I’m not joking about that. Hurts is a star quarterback. Sirianni is a fourth-year, first-time coach for whom there was no market when he replaced Doug Pederson in 2021. Hurts holds all the power.
