On The Lincs: What would a Philadelphia Eagles Pro Golf Tour look like?
The Sand Wedge: Jake Elliott
When your ball lands in the unforgiving beach, you have no other option but to pull out your Sand Wedge. Hitting out of the sand is always a tricky shot, and some believe it’s impossible to even to make. These shots are more timely and effective than some may think. When you land in the sand, the crowd is disappointed because they expected a better shot.
The obvious choice for the Sand Wedge is no other than Eagles kicker, Jake Elliott. Elliott solidified his starting role in Philadelphia after burying a game-winning 63-yard field goal against the New York Giants. That final play jump-started Elliott’s career and boosted his confidence all the way through Super Bowl LII. The Sand Wedge is essential because you don’t want to use it, but sometimes it’s necessary. The caddy has no other choice but to call on the Sand Wedge and Elliott definitely has hit some big shots in 2017.
The Putter: Brandon Graham
The finisher and the most known club in the golf bag. Arguably one of the most used clubs as well. In pressured situations, the “finisher” is brought out to secure the win. The Philadelphia Eagles putter is defensive end, Brandon Graham.
Graham showed off his finishing skills in Super Bowl LII when he strip-sacked Tom Brady with two minutes left to play. Philadelphia Eagles fans from all over will remember this play forever. Crowds will be in shock and disbelief when the putt sinks in the game winner. Graham has proven to be a clutch player and is the Philadelphia Eagles putter to win the day.
