Two weeks ago, former Princeton Tigers football player Ryan Quigley got close to the Philadelphia Eagles. He attended their playoff win over the Los Angeles Rams in the snow at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
Quigley was one of numerous people, who were injured in the ISIS-inspired terror attack on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, Louisiana in the early morning hours on New Year’s Day. Several people were also killed in the attack.
Former Tigers player Martin “Tiger” Bech was killed in the attack.
Now, Quigley is returning to the Crescent City. This time, he will hopefully have better memories than earlier this month.
He is going to the Super Bowl courtesy of the Eagles. Quigley was given Super Bowl tickets this week at the NovaCare Complex.
The Eagles will play the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, February 9th at 6:45 pm on FOX.
According to TMZ Sports, Quigley is dealing with a broken leg and a broken back from the attack. He also is dealing with other injuries that were not disclosed.
Brandon Graham — the longest-tenured Eagles player — greeted Quigley after he arrived inside the NovaCare Complex. Graham asked Quigley if he would like to go to the Super Bowl.
After that, Graham — who is trying to play in the Big Game — presented Quigley with Super Bowl tickets. His sister — who brought him to the NovaCare Complex — was overcome with emotions after seeing the moment.
Graham has been sidelined since November after suffering a torn pec injury against the Rams in their regular season matchup. This week, the Eagles opened Graham’s practice window, which means he may be able to play against the Chiefs.
He signed a one-year contract with the Eagles last March as he wanted to make one last run with the team. Quigley will now be able to cheer on his favorite team, including possibly Graham, in the Caesars Superdome in the Super Bowl.
