The Philadelphia Eagles are apparently quite fond of quarterback Nick Foles. Veteran defensive end Chris Long demonstrated his appreciation for Foles in his locker.
Long’s locker is, quite literally, a shrine to Foles.

“weekend, no different. I know he’s going to show up big.” Says it’s all about generating good energy.

Admittedly, it’s not quite the shrine to Jobu that Cerrano built in “Major League.” We’d need rum and cigars for that. But it’s a pretty solid shrine.
Foles has undeniably done a lot for the Eagles.
In 2017, he relieved an injured Carson Wentz and led Philadelphia to a win in Super Bowl LII, the first Super Bowl win in franchise history. The 2018 story has yet to go that far — but it’s off to a good start. Facing what was essentially a must-win game against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 15, Foles again led the Eagles to victory.
We can’t wait to see what this shrine will look like if Foles keeps winning.
