The Eagles tanked a game on National TV.
The players were rightfully embarrassed by the situation and was about to go after head coach Dough Pederson, but had to be held back.
When Doug Pederson pulled Jalen Hurts for Nate Sudfeld early in the fourth quarter in Sunday’s season finale against Washington, many Eagles players and coaches were shocked and outraged, team sources told The Inquirer.
Some were angry. Two defensive players had to be held back from approaching Pederson. Center Jason Kelce and another offensive starter went to the coach to ask him why he had pulled the starting quarterback with the Eagles trailing by only three.
It was likely to get a better draft spot, but it still doesn’t look good.
