Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni didn’t hide his emotions during the Super Bowl 57 national anthem.
As country star Chris Stapleton crooned a beautiful rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” the FOX camera found Sirianni on the Eagles sideline in visible tears during the performance.
It’s never a surprise to see various players and coaches get emotional during the Super Bowl’s national anthem, but Sirianni’s tears showed just how much it meant for him to lead Philadelphia to the NFL’s biggest game.
We’ve seen some major waterworks in the past during Super Bowl’s “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Former Denver Broncos running back Knowshon Moreno’s massive tears comes to mind.
Sirianni’s will certainly join the ranks of some of the most emotional.

Wow, it’s hard not to get moved by just how much this clearly means to Sirianni. This really was one of the coolest moments of the night, and the game hadn’t even gotten started yet.
