Eagles Could Make Coaching Changes After Losing to Giants: 'We'll Talk'

The Philadelphia Eagles dropped to 2-7 after losing to the New York Giants on Sunday. 

Philadelphia has lost seven games in a row and coaching changes could happen. 

After the Eagles-Giants game, head coach Nick Sirianni did not rule out the possibility of staff changes.

"We'll talk," Sirianni said. "Obviously, right now my job is to be there for our guys and to go watch the tape and go look through everything. I'll do anything I can to help this team win football games. I'll look at myself internally first and then go from there.

"My job is to coach the players and to coach the coaches, and anything I can do to help this team win games, we'll do. Everything can always be on the table, but I don't think you change just to change because that's what your record says that -- you've got to look at what's really real and not react to anything else."

The Eagles have lost seven straight in large part because of their struggles on offense. They exited Sunday's contest ranked 30th in points per game (16.4), expected points added (minus-47.28) and first downs per game (15.8) and 28th in offensive efficiency rating (31.53).

Sean Mannion could get fired as the Eagles' OC. He was hired in the offseason but hasn't done a good job this season.

Joe Milton started at QB on Sunday against the Giants. He threw for 169 yards and was sacked seven times. 

"Obviously, none of us offensively have done a good enough job. We're not going to sit here as coaches -- and it's not Sean, it's all of us and it starts with me," Sirianni said. "I think the correct question there to me is, 'Do you think you've done a good enough job?' Obviously, I haven't done a good enough job. We all have things that we've got to get better at, and we've got to figure it out on offense."

Everyone knew the Eagles would struggle without Jalen Hurts. However, no one thought it would be this bad. 

Hurts, who played against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London despite getting little sleep and having a superficial blood clot in his calf, will miss the rest of the 2026 season. 

The 28-year-old Hurts is clinically stable and his treatment requires blood thinners. He can’t play football while on blood thinners.

Nicole Lynn, Hurts’ agent, and the Eagles said in a statement that Hurts’ diagnosis is deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli. The latter condition indicates blood clots in the lungs. During treatment, Hurts will remain around the team and work on his conditioning.

Hurts requested treatment for a calf injury he suffered after being “cleated” during a game against the Los Angeles Rams on October 4. On October 10 in London, the Eagles diagnosed Hurts with superficial vein thrombosis in his left calf. He was cleared to play in the game, which makes no sense. 

Hurts underwent an ultrasound after the Jaguars game and movement was found in the blood clot. The Eagles ruled out Hurts for their game against the Carolina Panthers and now the star will miss the rest of the 2026 season. 

Hurts put up 933 passing yards, eight passing touchdowns, three interceptions, 107 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown this season. He completed 57.8% of his passes. 

Hurts entered this season with 17,891 passing yards, 110 passing touchdowns, 3,554 rushing yards and 63 rushing touchdowns in his career. He's made the Pro Bowl three times and won Super Bowl LIX MVP with Brown against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Eagles signed Hurts to a five-year, $255 million extension in April 2023. However, there is little guaranteed money left on Hurts' deal after the 2026 season.

A talented runner and thrower, Hurts finished the 2025 season with 3,224 passing yards, 25 passing touchdowns, 421 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns. He completed 64.8% of his passes.

The hope is that Hurts recovers from this serious blood clot diagnosis and returns to the NFL next season. He's one of the best players and people in football.
