Daily News | Doug Pederson embraced by Eagles, gives jacket to Jason Kelce
following the game. “The only thing I had one me was my raincoat, so I just exchanged that with him, and just wish him the best.”
Kelce showed off Pederson’s jacket to reporters outside his locker, but balked at calling it a trophy. “This is getting framed up, just like all the others,” Kelce said. “It’s a very prized possession right here.”Pederson received a standing ovation from Eagles fans at Lincoln Financial Field in his return to Philadelphia. He coached the Birds from 2016 to 2020, leading the team to its first Super Bowl victory.“I felt like he was a guy who was really instrumental in bringing me back from the abyss, so to speak,” Johnson told reporters.
“Me and Kelce got a bit teary-eyed,” Johnson added. “It’s the first time I seen him since everything took place. You just wish him the best — hell of a coach and a hell of a person.” Quarterback Jalen Hurts got his first NFL start under Pederson, when the coach benched the ineffective Carson Wentz, who was traded following the 2020 season. After the game, Hurts embraced Pederson and told him, ““I just told him I was proud of him. I wished him well the rest of the season,” Pederson said during his postgame press conference. “And, you know, just how he’s really turned into the leader that we all thought he was going to be, and is. And I just wanted him to know that.
