Philadelphia Eagles: What to know about the NFL team
The Philadelphia Eagles, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, play their home games at Lincoln Financial Field and are part of the NFC East division.
Founded in 1933, the team was established when Bert Bell, who later became an NFL commissioner, led a group to secure an NFL franchise for the city. Over the years, the Eagles have clinched 16 division titles and made five Super Bowl appearances. Their championship history includes five titles: three from the pre-Super Bowl era and two Super Bowl victories.
The Eagles have been home to legendary players such as Steve Van Buren, Reggie White, Chuck Bednarik, and Brian Dawkins. In 2018, a planned White House visit was canceled by President Trump due to controversy. However, in 2025, the Eagles were welcomed by President Donald Trump after their triumph in Super Bowl LIX. The 2025 season sees the Eagles boasting a roster filled with top NFL talent, including Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, and Landon Dickerson.
