Philadelphia Eagles

Echoing the ethos of Philadelphia, the Philadelphia Eagles are mentally tough and play an intensely physical game fueled by a never-say-die team spirit.¹ Known for their no-nonsense attitude and fierce pride, the Eagles are a cornerstone of Philly’s identity. Lincoln Financial Field transforms into a sea of midnight green on game days, echoing with the thunder of “Fly, Eagles Fly” and the roar of devoted fans who brave any weather to cheer their team. From tailgates packed with cheesesteaks to the passionate fans inside “The Linc,” attending a game is a true Philadelphia rite of passage.^2,3

The Eagles are proud of their origins and dedicated to uplifting their community through projects driven by the Eagles Charitable Foundation, the Eagles Autism Challenge, and A Fan of Change campaign.⁴

Founded in 1933 to replace the defunct Frankford Yellow Jackets, the Philadelphia Eagles were named after the symbol of President Roosevelt’s New Deal recovery program.⁵ After early struggles, the team rose to prominence in the late 1940s, winning back-to-back NFL Championships in 1948 and 1949. The Eagles claimed another title in 1960 under legendary coach Buck Shaw and quarterback Norm Van Brocklin.⁶ In 2018, they secured their first Super Bowl victory in a dramatic win over the New England Patriots, solidifying their legacy. After losing to the Kansas City Chiefs by a narrow margin in 2023, the Eagles took Kansas City on again in 2025. They claimed Super Bowl LIX with a convincing 40-22 win.⁷ Throughout the decades, icons like Chuck Bednarik, Reggie White, Jason Kelce, and Brian Dawkins have all played major roles in the franchise's success.⁸
