Philly Pressbox Logo

I did something with that Philadelphia Eagles that no other Eagle has been able to duplicate in over a half century. Although I’m not in the Eagles Hall of Fame, or ever really spoken of as an Eagles hero, I am a member of the College Football Hall of Fame where I was an All American under the legendary Knute Rockne at Notre Dame. Apparently others have thought highly of me because they named a stadium after me. Do you know who I am and what I accomplished with the Eagles?
