The Eagles made things official and (finally) announced the hiring of Nick Sirianni as the team’s new head coach on Sunday morning. It’s a move that has been reported and expected for days, but there were some contract items to iron out before everyone signed on the dotted line.

We aren’t expected to hear from Philly’s new head coach in a press conference until later in the week, as Sirianni fills his coaching staff and gets familiar with the organization and players.
The Philadelphia Eagles are adding Indianapolis Colts pass game specialist Kevin Patullo to Nick Sirianni's staff as pass game coordinator, according to NFL Media.
