Reason II -Incredibly experienced

From the moment he arrived at the Philadelphia Eagles in 2017, Nate Sudfeld has prepared himself as though he would be starting that week.  With so many injuries to the Eagle offense, that is a very wise approach.

The surprise to all came when the Washington Redskins cut him from their team in 2017 (we’ll get back to that later). The Eagles quickly swooped in to sign Sudfeld, and have kept him on the 53-man roster ever since. That translates into all the playoff games, the Super Bowl game, the lights, the cameras, and the action of some of the biggest stages and moments in the NFL.

He’s already “been there, done that”.  So having a backup with experiences that rival that of the starting quarterback, a new dynamic is born. Less of the fraternity hazing experiencing carrying shoulder pads off the field, and more of a healthy exchange of ideas. Goff, while a valuable and talented young quarterback, is still a young quarterback. Adding another voice to the choir to add perspective and logic to his game.

He’s been with the Philadelphia Eagles for three seasons and attended their offensive sessions. He has been briefed on NFC East opponents twice a year and knows the Eagles intimately. Since the 2020 NFL schedule pits the LA Rams against NFC East teams, he would be an invaluable asset to help the game plan.
