BREAKING NEWS: Just In Philadelphia Eagles Fans Favorite Top Sensational Star Player Announces Eagles Departure Ahead OF………

On Thursday, Nick Foles, who played in 11 seasons as an NFL player and won one Super Bowl with the Philadelphia Eagles, announced his retirement.

The Eagles selected the 35-year-old Foles in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft, and he spent two distinct stints of five years with the organization.

“I am immensely appreciative of the chance to retire as a Philadelphia Eagle,” Foles stated in a team statement. As an NFL player, the City of Brotherly Love has always seemed like home. I genuinely adore Philadelphia, and it has been a privilege to don an Eagles jersey.

When Foles took over for an injured Carson Wentz late in the 2017 regular season and led the Eagles to a 41-33 victory over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots, he was awarded Super Bowl MVP. This was the pinnacle of Foles’ career.

Although he passed for three touchdowns and 373 yards, the “Philly Special” is what made him most famous. Before the snap, quarterback Nick Foles went from behind center to behind the right tackle on fourth and goal within the Patriots’ 5-yard line, leaving running back Corey Clement alone.

After Clement snapped the pass, Foles paused before sprinting into the end zone. After that, Clement pitched to tight end Trey Burton, who found Foles with a short ball to make the score 22–12 at the half.

Team chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie stated, “Nick Foles always carried himself with the utmost class and integrity, demonstrating through his actions, both on and off the field, what it meant to be a Philadelphia Eagle.” “Aside from being a Super Bowl champion, he was also an incredible teammate, the ultimate competitor, and a true representative of our city.”

Following a victory over Oakland in which he threw seven touchdowns, leading the league in passer rating (119.2) and setting an NFL single-season record with a touchdown-to-interception ratio of 27-2, Foles was selected to the Pro Bowl in 2013. He was the only quarterback in history to have no more than two interceptions and more than 20 passing touchdowns in a single season.

After playing for five different clubs, Foles played his final game with the Indianapolis Colts on January 1, 2023.

The Eagles declared that they will commemorate Foles on September 16 when they play the Atlanta Falcons.
