Nick Sirianni denies flipping off Eagles fans after home loss to Giants as skid continues: 'Absolutely not'

The Eagles have now dropped seven straight after Sunday's 19-11 loss to the New York Giants.

Nick Sirianni, the head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, has firmly denied accusations that he flipped off fans following their recent loss to the New York Giants. The Eagles, who are currently in seventh place in the NFC East, suffered a 19-11 defeat on Sunday, marking their seventh consecutive loss. Sirianni claimed he was taken aback by the rumors and emphatically stated, "Absolutely not."

The gesture, if it indeed occurred, was a moment of surprise for him but was certainly not an intentional middle finger. Fans may be disappointed with Sirianni's performance, as the team has struggled this season, losing their star quarterback Jalen Hurts to blood clots, and appears to be out of the postseason entirely. Sirianni acknowledged the frustration fans are feeling and emphasized that the team is in a process of self-scouting to figure things out.

The Eagles are set to receive a first-round draft pick and a second-round pick in 2029 in exchange for defensive tackle Jordan Davis. Sirianni remains open to coaching changes but is focused on getting the team back on track in the final stretch of the season.
