Eagles and Super Bowl-winning head coach agree to extension

The newest Super Bowl-winning coach in the NFL is staying put.

The champion Philadelphia Eagles have agreed to a multi-year extension with coach Nick Sirianni. Philadelphia made its second Super Bowl in his tenure last season and won in dominant fashion over the Kansas City Chiefs.

‘As an organization, we have always strived to create a championship culture of sustained success,’ Philadelphia Eagles Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie said in a statement on May 19. ‘Nothing is more important to fostering such an environment than having tremendous leadership.

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. I am excited for what the future holds for the Philadelphia Eagles.’

The Eagles hired Sirianni ahead of the 2021 season. Prior to his arrival in Philadelphia, he was the offensive coordinator for the Indianapolis Colts under former Eagles assistant Frank Reich.

Philadelphia made the playoffs in all four years under Sirianni with two Super Bowl appearances, both against the Chiefs, in the 2022 and 2024 seasons.

Before this extension, Sirianni ranked 16th league-wide in total compensation among NFL coaches, per Front Office Sports. The full details of his extension have not been announced but he could rise up the order in the wake of a Super Bowl title.

Nick Sirianni coaching record

Sirianni has gone 48-20 in the regular season since taking over in Philadelphia. His winning percentage (0.706) is the best among active NFL coaches. It ranks fifth all-time in league history, only behind Hall of Famers Guy Chamberlin (0.784), John Madden (0.759), Vince Lombardi (0.738) and George Allen (0.712).

Philadelphia’s gone 6-3 in the playoffs in his tenure with two conference championships and one Super Bowl win.
