Zach Ertz surprises one of his biggest fans and Carson Wentz gets a nice gift from Ben Simmons. It’s all here on Philadelphia Eagles roundup.

QB1, better known as Philadelphia Eagles star signal caller Carson Wentz got a nice gift from Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons recently. More on that in a second. First, let’s begin by saluting ‘Birds’ tight end Zach Ertz who made a very nice gesture recently.

By now, you all probably know the Eagles organization has a young core of talent who also double as being some really good guys who don’t ask for any attention when they do nice things. That’s where we in the media come in.

Though we may get in the habit of publicizing bad news and critical opinions, it’s often fun to shed light on stories such as this one. Recently, Mr. Ertz stopped by Saint Norbert School in Paoli, Pennsylvania to surprise one of his biggest fans.

When he arrived, this happened:

Well done Mr. Ertz. Well done. Guys like you make cheering for this team an easy task. Let’s move on to some round ball.

Ben blesses Wentz.

Here’s a mantra we, at ITI, came up with for the Philadelphia 76ers. It simply says ‘No Embiid… No Problem…’ Throw that right up there with ‘PhilaUnite’ and ‘Here They Come’ hashtags that pop up all over social media whenever the Sixers are mentioned.

We’ve trusted the process remained patient. Now, it appears with the NBA playoffs looming, that there’s more news. Joel Embiid’s knee is an issue again. Hopefully, he’ll play, but in the meantime, 76ers star point guard/ small forward hybrid Ben Simmons is in the giving mood.

He recently sent Philly’s QB1, Carson Wentz, some new kicks, and Mr. Wentz is all smiles.

Next. Another expert hints Eagles could have plans to trade up. dark

There’s been no word yet on whether Nike will introduce a version of these that sport cleats on the bottom. We’ll hit them up on social media and see what they come up with.
