There’s a laundry list of evidence. From the Waterboys initiative in east Africa to the donations to schools in Charlottesville, Long has emphasized for his short but illustrious Eagles career that he has one goal: to give back to the communities that mean the most to him.
And now he’s giving back to Philadelphia. In the most beautiful of ways.
Imagine casually tossing the idea of putting up a mural of Beau Allen—a since-departed Philadelphia Eagle!—and having nobody doubt that you’re serious. (Okay, I have a little doubt, but still.) It takes work to build such a zany, carefree reputation.
