Usually, people sweat bullets thinking about their contract. But Nick Sirianni? He is just like the chill guy we all see. The Eagles‘ head coach just led Philly to a Super Bowl win, and instead of stressing about a new deal, he’s chilling, trusting the process. With only a year left on his contract, most coaches would be pushing for an extension, but Sirianni? He’s just vibing.

When reporters asked him about his contract at the NFL’s league meetings, he kept it cool: “These things will take care of themselves.” And honestly, he’s not wrong. Winning a Super Bowl is the best bargaining chip a coach could have, and Sirianni has that in his back pocket. “I’m not too concerned about it, I mean, you know, and so I don’t really get into contracts with anybody. I’m not gonna get into it on this one. And so it’ll happen. It’ll take care of itself,” he said. He knows the Eagles aren’t about to let their championship-winning coach walk away.

Let’s be real—NFL teams don’t like leaving their head coaches in limbo. The Eagles, who love stability, are unlikely to break that pattern. Just look at the Chiefs—after back-to-back Super Bowls, they wasted no time locking down Andy Reid. If Philly is smart (and they usually are), they’ll do the same with Nick Sirianni before it becomes a distraction.

But here’s the twist: the coaching market has exploded. Rookie head coaches are securing massive deals, with guys like Ben Johnson landing contracts in the $10-13 million range. Meanwhile, Sirianni is sitting at $7 million a year. If the Eagles want to keep him happy, they might need to drop a serious bag.

Nick Sirianni isn’t out here barking orders—he doesn’t need to. His résumé does the talking: 48 wins, a fistful of NFC titles, and a shiny Lombardi Trophy in just four years. The Eagles might not be sweating it yet, but dragging their feet could backfire big-time.

Sirianni tells Eagles to get back to work after Super Bowl win

Sirianni’s already telling the Eagles to ditch the confetti and get back to business. Sure, they just won the Super Bowl, but for Sirianni, the grind never stops. He gets it—winning’s addictive, but only if you stay obsessed. Take it from his Mount Union days, where he racked up three straight national championships: teams that get comfy don’t repeat.

What’s your perspective on:

Is Nick Sirianni's chill attitude towards his contract a sign of confidence or complacency?

Have an interesting take?

At the NFL Owners Meetings, he kept it real: “The celebration is over … but our preparation is here,” basically telling his squad, ‘Y’all ain’t done yet.’ With key veterans gone this offseason, rookies like Kelee Ringo and Jalyx Hunt gotta step up. But good luck slacking off around Saquon Barkley or Jalen Hurts—those dudes will call you out instantly. “Try not to work hard in front of Saquon or Jalen, and they’ll be on you,” Sirianni joked.

For Sirianni, culture’s the whole game. Last year’s crew had that magic, and he knows it doesn’t stick around by accident. “You have to recapture that each and every year,” he said. New faces, new hurdles—it’s all part of the grind. If the Eagles wanna go back-to-back, they’ll need to forge that bond all over again, no cheat codes allowed.

Winning one ring? Brutal. Winning two? That’s legendary. Sirianni’s making sure his team isn’t coasting on last year’s hype—they’re chasing this season like underdogs again. Message received: Stay hungry, Philly. Hungry dogs eat.
