While growing up, Nick had always loved and played the game of football as such there is no surprise that it has become part of his life. That said, he had also always wanted to be a pastor.
For his education, Foles attended the Westlake High School from where he graduated in 2007. He then went on to attend the University of Arizona where he got a degree in communication.
Career Summary
Foles began his professional career in 2012 with the Philadelphia Eagles after he signed a 4-year contract that would keep him until 2016. The year was a mixed year for him, but 2013 came with so much for him, ending as his best year yet, even though he was diagnosed with a concussion that same year. In the game against the Green Bay Packers, Foles made a history after he posted a passer rating above 149 in consecutive weeks. That made him the first in NFL to achieve that.
In the same year, he was able to beat Tom Brady and set a new TD-INT ratio record in NFL history. He went home with a 119.0 passer rating that only placed him below Peyton Manning‘s 121.1 rating in 2004 and the 122.5 set by Aaron Rodgers in 2011. To cap off the great year, he was awarded the “NFL Greatness on the Road” and the Pro Bowl Offensive MVP awards.
2014 wasn’t all bad for him, but in 2015, he moved to the St. Louis Rams, only to leave in 2016, before joining the Kansas City Chiefs in the same year. In 2017, he went off as a free agent. It was after this that Nick Foles made his historic second coming to the Philadelphia Eagles. Ironically, he came as a backup quarterback.
Following an injury sustained by Carson Wentz, Foles got the opportunity to lead the Eagles and he was able to do this. On the team’s road to the Super Bowl, he has helped them to get the first victory in 9 seasons by defeating the Atlanta Falcons after he completed 23 of 30 passes for 246 yards. He also played a significant role as the Eagles defeated the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Championship Game.
Although he has grown up with football, Nick revealed that he had lost his love for the game because unlike what used to be, he no longer wakes up wanting to play as much as he did earlier. That was after he had left the Rams. But then he found his way back to the game when he joined the Kansas City Chiefs.
