Sports Illustrated – Mike Trout was so excited…

Mike Trout | NFL on FO

The Philadelphia Eagles faced the Dallas Cowboys at home on Sunday in the penultimate week of the 2024 NFL season. With the offense missing quarterback Jalen Hurts, who was sidelined with a concussion, the defense decided to get involved in the scoring and opened the game with a pick-six to Cooper Rush to take an early 7-0 lead.

Chauncey Gardner-Johnson was the man who made the play, outpacing the entire Dallas offense on the way to the end zone.

As it turned out, the Eagles defense spent part of their celebration having a go at it on the field with a fan in the stands. This fan? None other than Mike Trout, MLB superstar of the Los Angeles Angels and native of Philadelphia. He was jacked too.

Trout has been a fixture at late-season Eagles games for years. He is a big fan and doesn’t have to work when the NFL season ends since the baseball season ends in September. In recent years, it has become a reliable sight to see Trout in the end zone during games in December and January. He even attended the Super Bowl in 2023.

Philly entered this week with a 12-3 record and a playoff spot secured. So Trout will have at least one postseason game left in addition to everything else. Maybe that’s why he’s so excited.
