PHOENIX — Nick Sirianni arrived just after 7:45 a.m. on Monday morning at the Arizona Biltmore for his annual NFL owners meetings media availability.

The half hour flew by.

The Eagles’ head coach was asked about a bunch of different topics from his new-look coaching staff, A.J. Brown, Jeff Stoutland, some new additions in free agency and more.

Here are five quick takeaways from Monday morning:

1. Nothing has changed with A.J. Brown

Eagles general manager Howie Roseman didn’t say much on Sunday afternoon about the ongoing A.J. Brown situation amid never-ending trade rumors. And the Eagles’ head coach followed his lead.

Sirianni on Monday was asked if he expected Brown to be at the team’s offseason training program and OTAs.

“Nothing’s changed there. A.J.s’ an Eagle,” Sirianni said. “Nothing’s changed from the last time I spoke to you guys. And, yeah, that’s where we are.”

Sirianni always talks about the importance of building an offense around players, so it would stand to reason that it might be a little difficult to create an offense right now with such a big question mark about one of their best players.

“A.J.’s an Eagle,” Sirianni repeated. “Nothing has changed since the last time we talked through everything. But you’re going through all the process that you go through each and every year. It’s a little different this year with a scheme change that we’re making.”

If the Eagles were to ever trade Brown, they might need to add more at the receiver position. But the team remains very high on DeVonta Smith. The former first-round pick has had a productive NFL career so far but still seemingly has untapped potential.

“Both those players, keep A.J. in it, both those players are phenomenal players that contributed to a lot of wins over the past four years here,” Sirianni said. ‘DeVonta, A.J., I know I’ve said that a lot. It’s not like we have a 1A and a 1B. We have two 1s there,” Sirianni said. “Obviously, DeVonta has had great seasons since he’s been here. He’s competitive, great football player. Love everything about him.”

2. The receiver additions

The Eagles have added two receivers this offseason, signing Hollywood Brown and Elijah Moore to one-year deals. There are some similarities with Brown and Moore. Both were very high draft picks who haven’t lived up to their potential in the NFL.

Both could also bring an element of speed to the Eagles’ offense.

“When you have good competition, it raises the level of everybody,” Sirianni said. “I think those guys add to it. I love their speed, their ability to get in and out of breaks and create separation, how they are with the ball in their hands. I’ve really enjoyed talking to both of them when they were in after we had signed them. Excited about that and their addition.”

3. Any role for Jeff Stoutland?

It doesn’t sound like former offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland will have a role with the Eagles in 2026 after stepping down from his post after 13 seasons.

On a recent appearance on the Fitz & Whit podcast, Lane Johnson said he thought Stoutland would be around “in some capacity” this season. But on The SZN podcast, Stout said he hasn’t had a conversation with anybody about that.

And based on what Sirianni said Monday, it doesn’t sound like there will be a role for Stoutland.

“Obviously, we moved on with our staff,” Sirianni said. “Really enjoying working with these guys. Obviously, love the guys that are no longer part of our staff. Always will have a relationship with those guys with everything they’ve done for our football team. But right now, we’re just focused on the upcoming year with this staff. There’s so many steps that you have to go through to get yourself ready for OTAs, to get yourself ready for training camp, to get yourself ready for Phase 1. That’s what we’re in the process of right now, of really focusing on that. And at this particular point, watching players with the draft coming up. That’s where our focus is right now.”

4. Keeping an edge

At times during his NFL career, new Eagles cornerback Riq Woolen has let his emotions get the best of him. We saw it on a huge stage in the NFC Championship Game when Woolen was flagged for a taunting call that nearly cost the Seahawks a trip to the Super Bowl.

But it should be no surprise that Sirianni likes some edginess.

“I’ll never have a problem with somebody being too edgy,” Sirianni said. “I love that because I know that you can see that and be like this guy loves football, this guy loves to compete and I’ll always take a guy who loves football and loves to compete any day of the week. And then we can handle some of the other stuff.”

Sirianni said the Eagles are edgy as a team and he wants his players to show their excitement and personalities. He said it’s his job as the head coach to explain the rules and make sure they know where the line is.

5. Campbell attacking rehab

Earlier this offseason, Eagles defensive coordinator Vic Fangio revealed that second-year linebacker Jihaad Campbell is rehabbing a shoulder injury and will miss most of the offseason.

This is a big season for Campbell, who is expected to take over as a full-time starting linebacker after the departure of Nakobe Dean in free agency. 

“This is a guy who’s just relentless in his pursuit. He loves football,” Sirianni said. “That was very obvious through the draft process last year, spending time in the year with him. He loves football, he wants to be the best football player he can possibly be and the way he attacks being on the field is the same way he attacks his rehab and everything like that to get himself healthy. I think it’s so important, you guys asked me a couple of these things about being healthy, it’s so important to be healthy because you can’t get better every day unless you’re healthy. It’s part of it.”
