Philadelphia Eagles Sign NFL Legend To Active Roster – Should Play Sunday

Author Nicole Michalik

Howie Roseman isn’t playing.  The Philadelphia Eagles signed an NFL legend to the active roster, and he should play on Sunday.  The Eagles take on the Dolphins in Sunday Night Football.  They are home at the Linc and it’s the first game where they will play in Kelly Green. After the loss to the Jets, the Eagles must win this game.  Miami has the hottest offensive in the NFL right now.

Julio Jones was a long-time staple on the Atlanta Falcons, he played with Matt Ryan and almost had a catch in the end zone during the Eagles vs Falcons game in 2018.  It was 4th down and Matt Ryan threw it to Julio in the end zone while all of Philadelphia held our breath.  Luckily he dropped it, which is rare, and the Eagles went on to play the Vikings, then obviously beat the Patriots to win the Super Bowl.  I still cry thinking about it.

Wide receiver Julio Jones, a seven-time Pro Bowl selection, signed a one-year contract with the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday. Julio, who’s 34,  will be reunited with former Tennessee Titans teammate, AJ Brown, who pushed for Tennessee to trade for him in 2021.

What a time to be a Philadelphia fan. The Eagles, Phillies, and even though the Sixers and Flyers have their issues, Joel Embiid was still the MVP of the NBA last year. It’s pretty remarkable when you think about it.

We get to cheer on the Phillies this week, and then channel all that positive energy into the Eagles for Sunday night. I have a feeling we might see Julio enjoying a Phillies game so he can take in the excitement that is Philadelphia.  No one cheers for their teams like Philly fans and so many players want to experience that sheer excitement.  Hopefully, Julio Jones is able to show Philly he still has it and gives us some big plays.

9 Shirtless Pics Of Our Favorite Philadelphia Phillies Players For Your Enjoyment

Let’s just say it, we have hot players and we should celebrate them. Here are 7 shirtless pics of our favorite Philadelphia Phillies players for your enjoyment. From Bryce Harper to JT Realmuto to Alec Bohm to Nick Castellanos and more, they are talented and hot and now they are playing in the NLCS for another chance to go to the World Series for the second year in a row. Let’s hope they take home the championship this time. The last time the Phillies won the World Series was in 2008 and we had a lot of attractive players on that team as well. I think it has to do with the confidence of being good. They know it.

Speaking of the NLCS, the Phillies announced some fun fan-filled activities before the game. 10a on Monday, the New Era Phillies Team Store will open and stay open until 4:30 p.m. The store will have the official postseason gear, including the latest selection of NLCS merchandise and a variety of NLDS locker room celebration merch.  It does close at 4:30p, but if you can’t head over to the stadium before that, the merchandise trailer will open at 4:30p so you can still get your gear that way.

Then, at 5p, the Phillies Postseason block party will start.  You don’t need a ticket to the game to attend. It’s a two-and-a-half-hour fun-filled event for the fans with food trucks, face painting, giveaways, a Ferris wheel, bungee jumping, live music, and more.  Then a pep rally starts at 7p. Not to mention the Phillie Phanatic will be there and there’s nothing better than a Phanatic hug.

To hold you over for the game, check out 7 shirtless pics of our favorite Philadelphia Phillies players for your enjoyment. Some people are blessed with good genes so why shouldn’t be appreciate it? They clearly have a lot of baseball talent as well.
