. Eric Allen (1988-1994). . team. 54. Eric Allen appeared in 111 NFL games with 110 starts and racked up 408 total tackles and 34 interceptions as an Eagle.. CB

There’s a three-way tie for the most interceptions in Eagles’ history. Here’s a spoiler alert. All three are on this team. Eric Allen is another member of Buddy Ryan’s ‘Gang Green’ defense, and he racked up 34 interceptions (including five pick-sixes). That’s tied for the most in team history.

Allen made the Pro Bowl six times (1989 and 1991–1995). He was a First-team All-Pro in 1989. He was a two-time Second-team All-Pro in 1991 and 1993. He’s a member of the Eagles 75th-Anniversary Team and the Eagles Hall of Fame.

Deion Sanders has already publicly petitioned to get Allen in the Hall, and every Eagles fan would agree with that. This should be a simple choice. Place Allen at one corner. Place this next guy on the other side.
