Sirianni–A.J. Brown Sideline Clash Requires Separation During Eagles' Playoff Loss

Sirianni says he was trying to get Brown off the field during a punt situation.

Overview

  • Broadcast cameras showed Eagles security chief Dom DiSandro stepping between Nick Sirianni and A.J. Brown after a heated exchange late in the first half.
  • The confrontation followed back-to-back deep incompletions to Brown, including a third-down miss that led to a punt.
  • Philadelphia lost 23-19 to San Francisco in the Wild Card round, ending its season.
  • Brown finished with three catches for 25 yards on seven targets with multiple drops, and he declined to speak to reporters after the game.
  • Sirianni downplayed the incident and publicly backed Brown, a stance that did not quell renewed questions about the receiver’s role and offseason speculation in media reports.
