Watch: Eagles fan dumps popcorn on HC Nick Sirianni after Bucs loss
It appears the Philadelphia Eagles players aren’t the only ones who have turned on head coach Nick Sirianni.
Minutes after Philly’s 32-9 loss at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night during their Super Wild Card Weekend matchup, an angry Eagles fan was caught on camera dumping a bucket of popcorn on the third-year head coach, screaming, “You’re done, Nick” as Sirianni walked toward the locker room.
The unidentified fan, who was wearing a No. 7 Haason Reddick jersey, exchanged some words with a security guard on the field level who can be heard yelling at the fan, “You ain’t leaving nowhere; get you’re a-- over here.”
The fan didn’t stick around long as he tried to evade security by quickly bolting up the stairs through the crowd, though it appears a few guards caught up to him at the end of the video.
Being on the receiving end of a popcorn shower is the least of Sirianni’s worries these days. After holding a two-game lead over the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East with just six games left in the regular season, the Eagles lost five of those six games to limp into the playoffs as the No. 5 seed.
Given the multiple reports that have pointed to a rift that’s developed between the Eagles coaches and players, coupled with the embarrassing end to the season, Sirianni could be looking for another job in the next few days.
