The season isn’t going the way Philadelphia Eagles fans expected after a 2-6 start and six straight losses.

Former Eagles quarterback Nick Foles recently spoke about his concern that the team’s culture is the issue. Sirianni responded by saying Foles isn’t “in the building.”
This prompted a follow-up from Foles on Eagles legend Brandon Graham’s “BG Unblocked” podcast, where he sent a clear message to the team.
