A familiar face returns to the Philadelphia Eagles nest.

Former Philadelphia Eagles fan-favorite Jason Avant hasn’t been a stranger since he officially called it a career after ten NFL seasons, eight of them with the “Birds”. The man who opened and runs “Launch”, a trampoline park in Deptford, New Jersey got fans of the midnight green to their television sets as he competed in an episode of American Ninja Warrior. He’s also been a visible part of several Eagles-related media ventures.
