WATCH: Eagles Head Coach Nick Sirianni Has Catch With Fans On Draft Night
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- After the coronavirus pandemic forced the 2020 NFL Draft to be held virtually from Commissioner Roger Goodell's basement, this year's draft was held in person in Cleveland. Meanwhile, in Philly, new Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni got a chance to interact with some Birds fans.
The Eagles are holding a draft party at Lincoln Financial Field on Thursday night, and before it started, Sirianni stepped outside to have a brief catch with some fans.

For what it's worth, Sirianni caught the ball.
It's unclear if the "Unlike Agholor" guy was in attendance.
That wasn't the only time Sirianni interacted with the fans.
The first-year head coach showed some love to some Eagles fans by signing some autographs.
