- Philadelphia missed playoffs after disappointing season
- Coach’s relationship with QB Wentz had reportedly frayed
The Philadelphia Eagles have fired head coach Doug Pederson less than three years after he led them to the Super Bowl title, according to multiple reports.
The Eagles failed to reach the playoffs this season, despite playing in the weak NFC East, and finished with a 4-11-1 record. Philadelphia failed to spark on offense, finishing 26th in scoring, and their franchise quarterback Carson Wentz regressed to such an extent that he was benched for back-up Jalen Hurts.
