NFL fans are unleashing a flurry of amusing quips following an intriguing report concerning Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni and Dom “Big Dom” DiSandro.
The Eagles endured a disappointing late-season collapse, dropping five of their final six regular-season games following a promising 10-1 start. Their season concluded with a humiliating defeat to the underdog Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the Wild Card Round.
Big Dom, the Eagles’ chief security officer, garnered attention during the team’s Week 13 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers when he was involved in a confrontation with Dre Greenlaw. As a result, the league barred Big Dom from the Eagles’ sideline for the remainder of the regular season.
On Wednesday afternoon, Derrick Gunn of JAKIB Sports revealed a rather intriguing report, suggesting that Big Dom’s absence impacted Sirianni down the stretch, as the latter struggled to manage his emotions without Big Dom’s support.

Gunn’s report sparked a flurry of humorous reactions from fans on platforms like X.
If Gunn’s report holds merit, it underscores the significance of Big Dom’s role as a source of moral support for the Eagles. Nevertheless, if Sirianni truly relies heavily on another team member to maintain control, it may not reflect well on him.
Regardless, the Eagles have opted to retain Sirianni for at least another season in their quest for the Lombardi Trophy. Sirianni has made changes to his coaching staff, appointing Kellen Moore as offensive coordinator and Vic Fangio as defensive coordinator, replacing Brian Johnson and Sean Desai, respectively.
