Months after leading the Philadelphia Eagles to a resounding Super Bowl victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, head coach Nick Sirianni has officially secured his future with the team.
The Eagles announced Monday that Sirianni has signed a multiyear contract extension, putting to rest any lingering questions about his job status.

After a disappointing end to the 2023 season, Sirianni’s future was uncertain.
But a 14-3 regular season in 2024 and a dominant postseason run, including a 40-22 Super Bowl win, firmly reestablished his place at the helm.
“As an organization, we have always strived to create a championship culture of sustained success,” said team owner Jeffrey Lurie in a statement.
“Nick has embodied everything we were looking for in a head coach since we hired him four years ago. His authentic style of leadership, football intelligence, passion for the game, and growth mindset have helped to bring out the best in our team.”
Sirianni’s tenure has been marked by consistent postseason appearances and resilience in the face of adversity.
His overall record stands at 48-20 in the regular season, with two NFC East titles and two Super Bowl berths.
Despite early doubts, including a rough end to the 2023 campaign and internal reshuffling that saw him step away from offensive play-calling, Sirianni has emerged as a stabilizing force in Philadelphia.
Following his return in 2024 with a reduced role focusing on team culture and leadership, the Eagles found renewed energy.
Veteran players echoed his leadership mantra, “You can’t be great without the greatness of others”, hroughout the postseason, signaling a team fully aligned behind their head coach.
Lurie’s confidence in Sirianni was evident as early as the Annual League Meeting in April, when he said, “I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough that Nick will be our coach going forward and he’s done an outstanding job.”
Sirianni’s ability to maintain success despite constant coordinator turnover further illustrates his adaptability.
With three offensive and three defensive coordinators passing through during his time, many have gone on to become head coaches themselves, proof of the coaching pipeline Sirianni has helped foster.
Now secured with a new contract, Sirianni remains a central figure in the Eagles’ blueprint for long-term success, a far cry from the speculation that surrounded his job just over a year ago.

49ers get A+ for Fred Warner contract extension — but how do rest of splashy offseason moves grade out?
USATSI The San Francisco 49ers are having one of the most interesting offseasons in recent memory, taking care of their own players while letting a significant amount of talent depart. The latest major move by the 49ers involved standout linebacker Fred Warner, who inked a contract extension that made him the highest-paid linebacker in the NFL. The Warner extension was the second major move the 49ers completed over the last four days, inking Brock Purdy to a massive contract extension that made him one of the seven highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL. San Francisco also signed George Kittle to a contract extension in April. Prior to these extensions, the 49ers watched other teams sign their players in free agency. Teams spent $319 million on the 49ers' free agents, the most money spent on a team's departing free agents in NFL history. […]
NBA rumors: Teams expect 76ers to consider trading No. 3 pick with Kevin Durant as a potential target
Getty Images The Philadelphia 76ers just endured several months of desperately clinging to their first-round pick. If the pick had landed outside of the top six, it would have gone to the Oklahoma City Thunder, so the 76ers spent the second half of last season tanking in an effort to keep it. Last week, that pick officially landed at No. 3 overall, and now that the 76ers have actually secured it, they need to decide what to do with it.After the NBA Draft Lottery, top 76ers executive Daryl Morey said that the "plan is to keep" the pick. The rest of the league, however, does not seem to trust him. ESPN's Jonathan Givony is reporting that "some teams expect the Sixers to be active in trade conversations" now that they know where they are picking. Two names Givony mentions as candidates? […]
Luis Perez’s head-scratching decision headlines UFL storylines from Week 8
Eric Williams NFL Reporter <!--> With the Arlington Renegades trailing by three points and needing only a field goal to send the game into overtime, quarterback Luis Perez took matters into his own hands — with disastrous results.Instead of spiking the ball to set up a long field goal, Perez faked the spike and tried to connect on a quick out route to get a couple yards closer. However, DC Defenders cornerback Deandre Baker picked off the fluttering pass to seal a 33-30 victory and a spot in the postseason. "I thought we were just spiking the football and were going to kick the field goal," Arlington head coach Bob Stoops said. "And Luis thought he had the out route, so he threw it. It didn’t work that way."Despite Perez’s season-high 350 passing yards, the Renegades were eliminated from the playoffs […]
