What happened: Robert Griffin III stated that the Philadelphia Eagles should not dismiss head coach Nick Sirianni or trade quarterback Jalen Hurts this offseason, even with the team struggling. Griffin previously defended Hurts and Sirianni while pointing to offensive coordinator Kevin Mannion during earlier struggles.
Why it matters: Philadelphia enters the post-deadline stretch at 2-7 after dropping an 11-19 decision against the New York Giants. The franchise faces long-term structural questions after Hurts was sidelined for multiple months due to blood clots in his lungs.
By the numbers: Hurts completed 89 of 154 passes for 933 yards with 8 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in 2026 through 5 games.
What to watch: The Eagles continue their regular-season schedule navigating Hurts' extended absence on injured reserve.
