Who else?
After going with Eric Allen for their Wild Card game against the Green Bay Packers and Corey Clement for their Divisional Round game against the Los Angeles Rams, the Philadelphia Eagles’ honorary captain for their NFC Championship Game against the Washington Commanders is …
Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles!

Feels like a good vibe.
Foles was obviously electric in the Eagles’ NFC Championship Game win over the Minnesota Vikings back in January 2018.
His presence should only help to pump up the Eagles’ home crowd even more. Lincoln Financial Field is going to be nuts on Sunday afternoon.
If there is a concern to be had, Foles was the honorary captain for the Eagles’ sole home loss this season … which was all the way back in Week 2 when he was being honored for officially retiring in Philly.
But playoff Foles is different than regular season Foles.
And Foles went 3-0 in three career starts against Washington.
So, the Commanders basically don’t stand a chance now.
