Eagles QB Nick Foles Can Beat You At Ultimate Frisbee

And football and basketball, too, says the title of this New York Times profile of the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback.

Here’s an excerpt on Foles’ ultimate skills:

…The [Eagles’] No. 2 receiver, Nelson Agholor, seemed convinced that Foles could hold his own regardless of the sport he was playing.

“You’ve got to see him in Ultimate Frisbee,” Agholor said. “We do a little conditioning in Ultimate Frisbee in the off-season. This dude’s got hands, got routes. Stupid athletic.”

Foles will look to lead the Eagles to their first-ever Super Bowl victory this Sunday against the New England Patriots, winners of five Super Bowls (all since 2001).
