Nick Foles is honorary team captain for Eagles NFC Championship game vs. Commanders

Nick Foles always brings good vibes, and as the only Super Bowl hero in franchise history, the quarterback always gets the call when the big game approaches.

Philadelphia will face Washington in the NFC Championship game, and because the team wants positive energy, Foles will be the honorary team captain.

Foles, 30, had a postseason record of 4-1 during his final two years in Philadelphia, including winning MVP of Super Bowl LII. In place of an injured Carson Wentz, Foles went 6-2 in the regular season and led the Eagles to two playoff berths.

Nick Foles played 11 seasons for six teams, including the Eagles and Bears.

Foles has passed for 14,227 yards and 82 touchdowns, earning one Pro Bowl nomination, the Super Bowl MVP, and the Lombardi Trophy.
