Former Eagles Star, NFC East Rival Delivers Clear Message On Old Team

The win snapped the Eagles’ 10-game win streak.

The Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jeff McLane reported that Sirianni apologized to Ertz via a Zoom call about a postgame confrontation that seemed to start when Ertz took exception to something Sirianni said to him right before Sirianni shook hands with Washington head coach Dan Quinn.

In a video shared by JP Finlay of NBC Sports, Ertz appears to walk over to Sirianni and angrily asks “What?” as the 2 begin to walk and jaw at each other.

Ertz and Sirianni were eventually separated by Eagles chief security officer Dom DiSandro.

“… their brief dust-up saw Ertz take exception to a comment Sirianni made about his performance in the game,” McLane wrote.

Ertz Brought Career Back To Life In D.C.

Ertz, who will turn 35 years old in November, saw his career come back to life in his first season in Washington.

Ertz hadn’t played a full season since 2018 as his career was decimated by injuries. The 3-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion was on his fourth team in four years. He hadn’t cracked 500 receiving yards and 5 touchdowns in a season since 2021.

In 2024, Ertz was paired with rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels and played every game for the first time since 2018 and was second on the team with 66 reception for 654 yards and 7 touchdowns.
