Nick Sirianni's dedication to family and football—Is he the ultimate role model for dads everywhere?

Philadelphia Eagles HC Nick Sirianni is preparing to win the historic Brazil game from the sidelines. Who doesn’t like their name engraved in history? Fans would also be eager to see Sirianni’s three children: Jacob, Taylor, and Miles. Sirianni likes to spend time with his family. It gives him some moments away from the NFL pressure.

Sirianni and his wife, Brett Ashely Cantwell, had their first son, Jacob, in 2015. A budding athlete, he likes to play baseball. The coach often visits his first son’s school games. While Sirianni wants Jacob to make his own choices and doesn’t want him to play sports (necessarily), he sometimes gives the coach wisdom. But Jacob, unaware of his father’s status, always tells him he (Nick) is not a baseball coach. The couple has a baby girl as well.

In 2017, they welcomed Taylor Sirianni, their daughter. She has become famous in quite a few NFL appearances. In January 2023, during the press conference before the Super Bowl, Nick brought his children to the podium and told them to stand. But Taylor didn’t want to stand, successfully getting Jacob’s seat. She got so restless during the conference that she started copying her father’s gestures, who had to tell her, “Taylor, stop it,” a moment that went viral. Speaking of viral moments, his youngest son, Miles, isn’t far behind.

Miles was born in 2020. When the Eagles won the NFC Championship in 2022, the young boy ran onto the field and was seen jumping and running across the gridiron. Later, the coach praised his running back, Miles Sanders, with his youngest son. He thought it was about him and looked up to his father while giggling. Exceptional! While we talk about his children, we have to mention his supportive wife.

Nick Sirianni’s wife, Brett Ashley Cantwell

Let’s go back 11 years. The month is June; the year is 2013. At Schweitzer United Methodist Church, Missouri, a gathering is watching a couple exchanging vows. It’s Nick Sirianni and Brett Ashley Cantwell. Brett’s sister Courtney is smiling. After all, she was the one who convinced Brett to go on a date with Nick. Though Nick was working with the Kansas City Chiefs (at that time), Brett, working as a teacher then, wasn’t flattered. She still smiles when she remembers those moments.

Talking about those times, Brett said, “When you first met me, you used the Chiefs card.” Sirianni claimed that his tactics card worked, but she still refused, saying, “I didn’t remember him, but he remembered me; I work with the Chiefs. I didn’t care at all.” The couple has sweet memories of their cute little meetings. Now, they are happily married. While Brett left her teaching job and looked after the children as a full-time mother, Nick progressed in the NFL.
