Nick Sirianni on why he won’t bench Jalen Reagor; How WR gives Eagles best chance to win

Head coach Nick #Sirianni on why he won’t bench Jalen #Reagor, and how the embattled wide receiver gives #Eagles best chance to win

Jalen Reagor played what some could describe as the worst performance of his NFL career, and he works to put two brutal drops behind him, his head coach is staying confident.

Rather than focusing on the lack of depth at wide receiver or star power on the bench, head coach Nick Sirianni gave this vague answer when asked about Reagor potentially losing snaps in the Eagles offense.

When asked if he considered benching Reagor, Sirianni stated that he needs all five wideouts on the roster and added that Reagor gives his team their best shot at victory.

Behind Reagor on the depth chart are Arcega-Whiteside and Greg Ward, two familiar names, and neither more talented.

Reagor’s going to have to play through his struggles and the Eagles appear willing to support him throughout.

Eagles WR Jalen Reagor takes accountability for 2 costly drops in loss to Giants

Philadelphia #Eagles wide receiver Jalen Reagor was one of the first to the podium and took accountability for 2 costly drops in loss to New York #Giants

Playing in the NFL can sometimes be about growth and learning from letdowns or disappointments and that appears to be the plight of Jalen Reagor heading into Week 13 of the 2021 season.

Already struggling through a subpar second-season, the Eagles wide receiver dropped two potential touchdowns on the final drive as Philadelphia dropped a 13-7 clunker to the embattled Giants.

The first drop, quarterback Jalen Hurts appeared to hit Reagor perfectly on a go route in the end zone.

The second drop wasn’t contested and Reagor could have potentially scored on the play at the least.
