**Eagles’ Focus on Future as Super Bowl Banner Rises**
The Philadelphia Eagles are set to unveil their second Super Bowl banner during the NFL’s 2025 season kickoff against the Dallas Cowboys, but the team is prioritizing future success over past achievements. Legendary Eagles running back Brian Westbrook praised head coach Nick Sirianni’s mindset, emphasizing that the current roster is not dwelling on last year’s victory but is instead focused on the goal of winning another Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Westbrook, who recently collaborated with USAA to support military service members, shared insights into the Eagles’ mentality heading into the new season. He noted that the team is not taking a victory lap but is instead committed to refocusing and proving themselves once again. “This offseason was about saying, ‘Yeah, we won last year, but we have something else we want to prove,’” Westbrook explained.
In conversations with players, Westbrook has observed a strong emphasis on offseason workouts and preparation for the upcoming season, rather than reminiscing about their Super Bowl win. He highlighted the leadership of franchise quarterback Jalen Hurts, who carries a “chip on his shoulder” despite being the Super Bowl MVP. Westbrook believes Hurts’ leadership will be crucial for the team’s success.
Another key addition to the Eagles is running back Saquon Barkley, who made a significant impact in his debut season by leading the NFL in rushing and scrimmage yards. Westbrook, who played the same position, appreciates Barkley’s selfless attitude, stating, “Saquon is one of the best teammates you can possibly have.” He emphasized Barkley’s willingness to adapt to whatever role the team needs, whether it’s blocking or carrying the ball.
As the Eagles prepare for the season ahead, their focus remains on building upon their past success and striving for another championship.
