Philadelphia Eagles
The Philadelphia Eagles are a National Football League team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Eagles, along with the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Reds, joined the NFL as 1933 expansion teams. The team is regarded as a second incarnation of the defunct NFL team Frankford Yellow Jackets, who folded two years earlier due to financial hardships brought on by the Great Depression.
