Nick Sirianni becomes baby namesake after Eagles' Super Bowl glory sparks emotional tribute from L.A. family
L.A. family names daughter 'Sirianni' after Eagles win Super Bowl (Getty Images) Fans often find unique ways to celebrate their passion — jerseys, tattoos, even elaborate game-day rituals. But for Jazmine Jackson and Eric Estrada, the birth of their daughter in April 2025 marked the beginning of a legacy unlike any other. They named her Sirianni — after none other than Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni — a decision born out of love, loyalty, and a little bit of football magic. Baby Sirianni : How a Super Bowl victory inspired one family to immortalize an NFL coach's legacy It all started as a joke. Last July, when Jazmine learned she was expecting, her sister Tyquanique — a long-time Eagles devotee — casually suggested naming the baby Sirianni. But the joke quickly turned into something far more meaningful. 'No, I'm going to call her Sirianni,' Jazmine told her sister, laying claim to a name that would ultimately carry deep emotional and symbolic value. Though neither Jazmine nor Tyquanique hails from Philadelphia, the bond they share with the Eagles runs deep. From their home base in Los Angeles, the sisters have built a ritual around every game — waking at dawn to line up for 10 a.m. kickoffs at the IMAX-style Cosm theater in Inglewood. Even during pregnancy, Jazmine stood in those lines, weathering the discomfort just to feel a part of the action. 'Since I can't fly, because I'm pregnant, I got to get the whole experience,' she said. 'It felt like you were behind the players on the field.' Baby Sirianni, still in the womb, was along for every moment of the Eagles' triumphant Super Bowl LIX campaign — a season defined by grit, unity, and the steady leadership of their head coach. Nick Sirianni had recently inked a multi-year extension with the team, having racked up an impressive 48-20 record, two NFC championships, and a Super Bowl title. For the Jackson family, that leadership went beyond the field. 'Sirianni stands his ground, win or lose,' Tyquanique told the Philadelphia Inquirer. 'He came and brought this team to life. And when he is doing his interviews, he says what he means. I also love his kids. His kids are right there in the interviews. He's a family-oriented man.' Jazmine's boyfriend, Eric, was initially unsure — maybe the name would work better as a middle name. But soon, the whole family embraced it. A pink cake at the baby shower read 'Welcome Baby Sirianni,' and a custom name frame made it all feel real. On April 18, at 10:27 p.m., Sirianni Nyla Estrada was born — a seven-pound, nine-ounce bundle of Eagle pride, wrapped in her very first team onesie. While the name honors the NFL coach, it also reflects her cultural roots. Eric, of Mexican descent, appreciated that 'Sirianni' carried Hispanic and Italian heritage, offering their daughter a name with a sense of identity. 'It still gives her that Latino splash in her name,' Tyquanique noted. 'She is half Mexican and half African American, so culturally, it fit her.' Since her birth, Baby Sirianni has become something of a good luck charm in Eagles circles. A viral post in a fan group compared her to a tiny cheerleader and dubbed her a symbol of the team's new era. Though she won't remember the Eagles' latest Super Bowl run, her name ensures that she'll always be a part of it. 'She sleeps through the night, she's calm during the day,' Jazmine shared. 'Eats well. Is very attentive. But she has her faces. She can make emotional gestures. Especially when she wants her bottle.'

Sirianni Shakes Off Critics With First Comments On New Eagles Contract
No one outside of the Philadelphia Eagles seems to know or appreciate what Nick Sirianni is to the organization. His detractors think of him as a useless cheerleader on the sideline while his superior team crushes all in their path. Even some of his biggest defenders wanted him gone through four weeks in the 2024 season. Through it all, Sirianni has remained true to who he is as a person. And it has helped the Eagles reach new heights never before seen from the organization before. Sirianni's 48-20 record is the best active winning percentage currently in the league. He's only been with the team for four seasons, but has reached the playoffs in all four years, led his team to two Super Bowl appearances, and even won a title last year. Now, with a fresh, long-term contract under his belt, Sirianni is just thankful for all the Eagles that have helped him get to this point. "You can either go at it and be like, 'Ah, look at me now.' But I don't think that-- I'm grateful for all of that scrutiny," Sirianni said. "I'm grateful for that for multiple reasons. I'm grateful in the sense that it shapes you to who you are going to be. "God puts you through things and it shapes you to who he wants you to be." Sirianni will continue to try and prove the doubters wrong at this point. So long as the Eagles keep winning, though, there shouldn't by any worry about that moving forward.

Eagles players share thoughts on looming 'tush push' vote
Eagles players share thoughts on looming 'tush push' vote The Eagles don't seem overly concerned about the play being outlawed The Eagles' signature quarterback sneak play remained intact following discussions at Palm Beach, Florida's early April league meetings. Rather than proceeding with a definitive vote to reject the proposed ban, the decision was deferred to this week's league meetings in Minneapolis. Green Bay revised its initial proposal, and a vote will take place on Wednesday. When speaking with reporters on Tuesday, Eagles players were asked about the looming vote, and they didn't seem worried about the tush push's future. Left tackle Jordan Mailata said, 'We'll go without the push' if the proposal goes through, adding that the team is more focused on learning from new offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo than paying attention to league meetings. 'In terms of them banning the tush push, I hate that name so I hope they do ban it,' Mailata said. 'It's a stupid name. But I can't control it, we can't control it, so we don't even worry about it. Right now, we're just installing our schemes, whatever KP is installing that day, that's what we're focused on because worrying about if they're going to ban the tush push isn't win us a championship. What we do here every day here matters.' WR A.J. Brown had no thoughts regarding the ban. 'It's only one yard, so,' Brown said with a laugh. QB Jalen Hurts also declined to share any thoughts on the topic. In March as the NFL Scouting Combine, head coach Nick Sirianni voiced his frustration with the tush push discourse. "I almost feel a little insulted because we work so hard at that play," Sirianni said. "The amount of things that we've looked into to coach that play. It comes down to how you teach the fundamentals and how the player go through it and do the fundamentals. "It's not an easy play to practice. The fact that it's an automatic, we work really, really hard at it and our guys are talented at this play. It's a little insulting to say just because we're good at it, so it's automatic. We work really hard at it." Philadelphia's star running back shared the same sentiment as Sirianni. 'If you don't like it, get better at stopping it,' Barkley told ESPN at the Met Gala. 'It's not like a play that we only could do. Everybody does it. Everyone tries it. We're just super successful at it.' The Eagles converted on 39 of 48 tush push attempts last season, including the playoffs. Of the nine times they failed, they converted on a consecutive push eight times, twice via an offside penalty. They have mastered the play, and frankly, other teams are so disappointed that they can't execute it and/or stop it. Regardless, the Eagles have a Super Bowl title to defend and are prepared to move forward should the ban become a reality.
