Let’s welcome the newest member of the Eagles beat:

Novozinsky joins a group that includes Jeff McLane, Olivia Reiner, Jeff Neiburg, and whatever combination of Mike Sielski, Marcus Hayes, and David Murphy shows up in South Philly on a given day.

According to LinkedIn, he most recently worked for NJ.com, four years as a Devils reporter with a year on the Giants beat from 2024 to 2025. This will be totally different for Novozinsky since he’ll be covering a winning team that people actually give a shit about, so that’s the main hurdle to clear. It goes on to say that he graduated from Oklahoma State University in 2022 and worked for the student radio station as well as a sports talk station called 107.7 The Franchise, based out of OKC.

Let’s lay out some of the ground rules for Novozinsky:

  • when the Eagles announce an injury, make sure to tweet it out at the same time as the 27 other beat writers
  • you must yell over everyone else inside the NovaCare auditorium to get a question in
  • when a player enters the blue medical tent, we need to know immediately
  • don’t get between John McMullen and Reuben Frank as they try to ask their questions, unless you want to be told to “shut up”
  • if you’re going to punch anybody in the face, make sure it’s a colleague
  • don’t ask Nick Sirianni any stupid fucking injury questions because he never answers them
  • scoops aren’t a huge deal since everything is going to be leaked to Adam Schefter or the NFL.com insiders
  • make sure to be REALLY QUIET in the press box because it’s a professional working environment full of serious, high-level journalists covering super-important things, like the Iran War and whether or not Jalen Hurts should have thrown that ball away

Just follow those guidelines and you’re good!
