CB. . Troy Vincent (1996-2003). . team. 54. Troy Vincent started every single one of his 118 games with the Eagles, racking up 516 total tackles and 28 interceptions in the process.

This was a toss-up. Tom Brookshier won a championship in 1960 and had his number 40 retired, but Troy Vincent made more Pro Bowls (five compared to Brookshier’s two), and he also was voted All-Pro once.

Troy Vincent was one of the most underrated corners in league history, and his 28 interceptions as an Eagle is good enough for seventh in team history. He’s also a member of the Eagles Hall of Fame.

His stat line also includes 516 total tackles, 28 interceptions, ten forced fumbles, and six fumble recoveries.

With all of that being said, he gets the nod here. We can call ‘Brookie’ up to add depth as the nickel or slot corner for the sake of appeasement.
