Enjoy every moment with your family, loved ones, and everyone in Philadelphia. Have fun on Broad Street! God bless!”
He also poked some fun at former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who lost to Foles in Super Bowl LIII and did the color commentary for FOX during Super Bowl LIX. “It’s really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles’ two Super Bowl wins! He might be a good luck charm.”
