Nick Sirianni discusses Eagles running back injuries, defensive improvement, more

Eagles’ head coach Nick Sirianni spoke to reporters on Wednesday and talked a bit about their expectations for the running back room and the injuries to Miles Sanders and Jordan Howard. He also talked about the improvements the defense has made this season, adjustments they’ve made to accommodate the new COVID protocols, and their process for repping difficult catches with the skill players.

Sirianni emphatically stated that they will not be putting Miles Sanders on IR at any point between now and the end of the season, so they are hopeful that he’s able to come back after having surgery on his hand earlier in the week.
