Doug Pederson has harped on the Eagles trusting each other this offseason and coming together as a team while trying to navigate the new world we live in due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Pederson wants to bring his Eagles team together and on Thursday, he had the Zen Master address his team. On the heels of the last dance and seeing how Phil Jackson was able to bring the great Chicago Bulls teams together, Doug Pederson had the legendary head coach address his team during their virtual team meeting on Thursday.

The Eagles had the Zen Master, Phil Jackson, on their video call today. "He was everything you thought he would be: real chill and cool," one player said.

It’s really unknown what the subject of their conversation was but with Doug Pederson having to infuse Jalen Hurts into the locker room with Carson Wentz, while also managing the egos and temperaments of one of the NFL’s most personable teams, having Jackson offer some insight into navigating huge personalities should have a positive impact on the Birds.
