Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni has the art of the troll down pat.
While talking with media on Tuesday, Sirianni joked about how he occasionally responds to New York Giants fans when they mess with him and give him a “Go, Giants!” as they see him walking around in Philadelphia.
Well, Sirianni knows exactly where being a New York fan stings right now when it comes to the NFC East rival Eagles. He’s got a ruthless retort that will make them want to avoid saying anything to the Philly coach any time soon.
“If the guy gets me good enough, I’ll probably usually say, y’know, we got your best player,” Sirianni quipped, referencing how the Eagles signed former Giants running back Saquon Barkley in the offseason.
Ouch. OUCH.
"We got your best player 🤷🏻♂️"

If you’re a Giants fan and the coach of the Eagles trolls you by telling you Philly signed your team’s best player, you might want to go hide in your room for about a week.
That’s the kind of interaction you never forget for all the wrong reasons… and it’s also absolutely hysterical for all 31 other NFL fan bases.
