Nick Sirianni

Sirianni comes from a family deeply involved in coaching and education. His father, Fran Sirianni, worked as a middle school science teacher and served as the head football coach and longtime track coach at Southwestern Central High School in West Ellicott, New York. His brother Jay also coached football at Southwestern Central, winning two New York state championships, while his brother Mike became the head football coach at Washington & Jefferson College in Pennsylvania. Through his father, Sirianni is of Italian descent with family roots tracing to Calabria, and he was raised in the Catholic faith.

Sirianni met his wife, Brett Ashley, while he was working on the coaching staff of the Kansas City Chiefs. The couple has three children: two sons, Jacob and Miles, and a daughter, Taylor.

Sirianni played college football as a wide receiver at the University of Mount Union in Alliance, Ohio, competing at the NCAA Division III level under head coach Larry Kehres. During his collegiate career, the Mount Union Purple Raiders won three consecutive national championships in 2000, 2001, and 2002. Although he suffered a severe calf injury and compartment syndrome during his sophomore year that nearly ended his athletic career, he recovered to start for three seasons. As a senior in 2003, he caught 13 touchdown passes and amassed 998 receiving yards before graduating with an education degree.

Following college, Sirianni played one season of professional indoor football for the Canton Legends in the American Indoor Football League in 2005. He transitioned directly into coaching, starting as the defensive backs coach at Mount Union from 2004 to 2005 and assisting on another national title team. He then spent three seasons from 2006 to 2008 coaching wide receivers at Indiana University of Pennsylvania.

Sirianni entered the NFL in 2009 when Todd Haley hired him as an offensive quality control coach for the Kansas City Chiefs. The two had originally crossed paths while working out at the same YMCA during Sirianni's college years. Sirianni remained in Kansas City through 2012, eventually serving as wide receivers coach under Romeo Crennel.

In 2013, Sirianni joined the San Diego Chargers under head coach Mike McCoy. He worked as offensive quality control coach before being promoted to quarterbacks coach in 2014, working closely with veteran quarterback Philip Rivers and offensive coordinator Frank Reich. In 2016, he transitioned to coaching the Chargers' wide receivers, assisting Keenan Allen during a comeback campaign in 2017.

When Reich was named head coach of the Indianapolis Colts in 2018, he hired Sirianni as his offensive coordinator. Over three seasons in Indianapolis from 2018 to 2020, Sirianni coordinated offenses that operated with a different starting quarterback each year: Andrew Luck, Jacoby Brissett, and Rivers. Under his direction, the Colts qualified for the playoffs twice and regularly ranked among the league's top ten in red zone and third-down efficiency.

The Philadelphia Eagles hired Sirianni as head coach in January 2021. In his first season, he managed a 9-8 regular season record and secured a wild card playoff berth, making him the only first-year head coach to lead a team to the postseason in 2021.

In 2022, Sirianni guided the Eagles to a 14-3 record, an NFC East division title, and a berth in Super Bowl LVII following playoff victories over the New York Giants and the San Francisco 49ers. The Eagles narrowly fell to the Kansas City Chiefs 38-35 in the championship game. After an 11-6 campaign in 2023, Sirianni led Philadelphia to a dominant 2024 season. Behind the league-leading rushing performance of Saquon Barkley, defensive coordinator Vic Fangio's top-ranked defense, and quarterback Jalen Hurts, the Eagles posted a 14-3 regular season and won the NFC championship with a 55-23 victory over the Washington Commanders. In Super Bowl LIX, the Eagles defeated the Chiefs 40-22, securing Sirianni his first Super Bowl title as head coach.

In May 2025, Sirianni signed a multi-year contract extension with Philadelphia. He led the Eagles to another NFC East title in 2025 with an 11-6 record, marking five consecutive playoff appearances to begin his head coaching tenure.
