In the NFL, 25 years old is not too young to put a ring on the finger.
A Super Bowl ring, that is.
The Eagles opened the season with the second-youngest roster in the league, (average age per player of 25.49 years, per PhillyVoice), which is the thing that makes their bid for a repeat different from most defending Super Bowl champions built around win-now veteran pieces.
“They’ve got such a young team in general … that it’s like, ‘We just applied everything we had to something, went and dominated and won a Super Bowl. I’m still at the prime of my career. I’m still who I always set out to be as an NFL player, and I can get even better so there’s more to go chase,’” said Prime Video NFL analyst Andrew Whitworth, a former Pro Bowl left tackle who won a Super Bowl with the Rams.
