Sirianni was seen sprinting down his sideline at Lincoln Financial Field to yell at Brown to get off the field, but the veteran receiver clearly didn’t like what his head coach was saying and they got into it.

Words were exchanged, though it’s unknown exactly what was said.Brown continued to jaw at Sirianni, who was being directed away from his receiver by a staff member.
