LOGINFollowing his Super Bowl win and the Super Bowl MVP award, Eagles QB Nick Foles was a much quoted man. As most football fans know, Foles has had an inconsistent career. He played for 2 universities (Michigan State & Arizona); in the NFL his first team was the Eagles, then the Rams, then the Chiefs, before returning to the Eagles. Foles has been a starter and has been an NFL backup. He has had many considerable highs; he has also experienced his share of lows. Making his quote following SB LII all the more significant; βdonβt be afraid to fail – Dream Bigβ.
The theme of this article will be how important it is for athletes to follow their dreams, and to not allow temporary failure, become a deterrent as they chase their goal(s). An additional potential obstacle, may be the naysayers, those who underestimate the athlete, and his/her resolve to attain βbig thingsβ. Donβt be afraid to dream big!
Advocating for football prospects one story at a time.
