Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni was asked on Wednesday about two of his star players supposedly going rogue at a crucial moment in the team\u2019s Week 10 win over the Green Bay Packers.<\/p>\n
The Eagles were leading 10-7 and had a 4th-and-6 with 33 seconds remaining in their game against the Packers at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wis. Sirianni made the surprising decision to go for it on fourth down at the Packers 35-yard line. The play call was even more puzzling, as Jalen Hurts attempted a low-percentage deep pass to A.J. Brown that fell incomplete.<\/p>\n
After the game, ESPN\u2019s Scott Van Pelt asked DeVonta Smith about the fourth-down call. Smith seemed to suggest that\u00a0the play call came from Hurts and Brown, not Sirianni.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhatever (Hurts) and (Brown) want to do, if that\u2019s what they call and that\u2019s what they wanna do, we rolling with it,\u201d Smith said.<\/p>\n
Philadelphia radio host Bill Colarulo then reported on Tuesday that Hurts and Brown \u201cwent rogue\u201d with the play call on 4th-and-6.<\/p>\n
Sirianni addressed the situation during his media availability on Wednesday. He seemed annoyed at the suggestion that his players overruled him. The coach emphatically repeated the same response twice.<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew exactly what the play was that we were calling and that was run in that moment,\u201d Sirianni said.<\/p>\n
There is a big difference between recognizing the play and calling it yourself, and it seemed like Sirianni intentionally stopped short of saying the deep throw was his decision.<\/p>\n
Brown has seemed frustrated with the Eagles all season, as he is not being given the opportunity to produce like a Pro Bowl wide receiver. Philadelphia is 7-2 and looks like a legitimate Super Bowl contender, but Brown\u00a0made some comments in a live stream\u00a0on Wednesday night that got fans buzzing again.<\/p>\n
There have been\u00a0reports in the past of tension between Hurts and Sirianni. Most of those came before the Eagles won the Super Bowl. Even if Hurts did call an audible on the 4th-and-6 play, the Eagles won the game. That is probably all his coach cares about.<\/p>\n
Alex Bregman already is one of the most talked-about stars available in free agency right now.<\/p>\n
This was the case before he even opted out of his deal with the Boston Red Sox and has only picked up steam since. He’s a star coming off his best season in a few years. Plus, he helped get one of baseball’s storied franchises back to the playoffs. It’s a perfect storm for free agency. Plus, it doesn’t hurt that he has the most well-known agent out there in Scott Boras.<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, Boras held a press conference where he discussed some of his clients. Unsurprisingly, Bregman was brought up and he had a\u00a0clever\u00a0coffee-themed response.<\/p>\n
“I would certainly think that you know, like in Boston, we learned a lot about Bregman in 2025,” Boras said. “In Boston, prior to ’25, they had a lot of lineup do-not-holes and certainly, prior to ’25, Boston has been kind of a club that has been Dunkin\u2019 well below the playoff line. I think it was a bad roast in Beantown. Give the owners credit, in \u201925 they went out and spent some star-bucks to bring in a Bregman blend and got them to the playoffs. I’m sure Boston fans don\u2019t want this to be just a cup of coffee. No one wants a Bregxit.”<\/p>\n
All jokes aside, Boras isn’t wrong. Boston had a tough few years before bringing Bregman in. The Boston lineup was lefty-heavy and young and desperately needed a right-handed veteran with pop.<\/p>\n
Bregman fit the description and more. The Red Sox handed him an aggressive $120 million deal for three seasons and really showed the league that they were willing to get back into the mix for star-level talent again.<\/p>\n
Also, he’s not wrong about the fact that Boston fans likely don’t want the partnership to be short-lived. Now, it’s in the hands of the front office and agents. But, Boston made the right move by bringing Bregman in last offseason and it’s going to be a big topic over at least the next few weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
