Monday night will be a celebration of Eagles football. The team will honor the retiring Nick Foles at halftime of Philadelphia’s Week 2 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
The game will air on ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN+ and feature another recently retired Eagles legend in multiple capacities. Jason Kelce will join Ryan Clark, Marcus Spears, and Scott Van Pelt on Monday Night Countdown and then Troy Aikman and Joe Buck in the booth for the entire third quarter of Monday’s game.

Foles will be best remembered for completing 28-of-43 passes for 373 passing yards, three touchdowns, one interception, and a 106.1 passer rating en route to Super Bowl LII MVP honors. He became the first backup quarterback to win the Super Bowl since Tom Brady in 2001 with New England.
The Eagles defeated the Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII, winning the storied franchise’s first Lombardi Trophy.
