Randall Cunningham – Quarterback 1985 -2001

Cunningham was one of the first dual-purpose quarterbacks, able to make plays with both his arm and his legs.

Reggie White – Defensive End 1985 – 2000

There are very few that have been as good as Reggie White was.

Truly one of the greats.

Although he did play for other teams in his 17 – year career, Ron Jaworski is synonymous with Philadelphia. When he retired, his streak of consecutive starts was more than any other quarterback at 116, and his 170 regular season touchdowns were a team record until surpassed by Donovan McNabb in 2008.
