PHILADELPHIA - Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz got backhanded compliments from NBC's Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth on Sunday night for supposedly not knowing the 76ers had hired Doc Rivers as their coach.
Eagles coach Doug Pederson, who knows how to win a championship in Philly, can’t wait to meet the newest member of the city’s coaching fraternity.“I’d love the chance to introduce myself and welcome him to Philadelphia,” Pederson said.Meet-and-greets with Rivers will mostly have to wait because of restrictions in place amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
