69. Jon Runyan

The people of New Jersey love Jon Runyan so much that when his playing days were over, they elected him to the U.S. House of Representatives. He’s a member of the Philadelphia Eagles 75th Anniversary Team and started all 144 games he played in an Eagles jersey.

68. Dennis Harrison

From 1978 to 1984, Dennis Harrison started 75 of the 97 games he played in an Eagles jersey. He even made the Pro Bowl in 1982.

67. Jamaal Jackson

From 2003 to 2011, Jamal Jackson started 72 of the 88 games he played in an Eagles jersey. No one else who’s ever worn the number 67 has ever played better for ‘The Birds’.

66. Bill Bergey

25 Eagles have worn the number 66. Bill Bergey was the best of them all, earning four Pro Bowl nods in a green jersey (and five total). Add that to his two First-team All-Pro nods (1974, 1975) and his three Second-team All-Pro nods (1976, 1977, 1978). He’s also a member of both the Eagles Hall of Fame and the Philadelphia Sports Hall of Fame.

65. Lane Johnson

Lane Johnson may not feel like he’s Hall of Fame worthy, but most Eagles fans would disagree. You never have to worry about his side of the line when he’s on the field. Like it or not Mr. Johnson, you’re crafting a Hall of Fame resume right before our eyes.
