Best, unique Christmas, holiday gifts for Eagles fans

The Eagles are in first place and are real candidates to make it to the Super Bowl. 

Finally, it’s a safe time to invest in Eagles gear. The team is not only good now, but will be good for years to come (as they’ve recently extended Alshon Jeffery, among other important long-looking moves). 

The NFL has taken notice too, with quarterback Carson Wentz sporting the No. 1 top selling jersey in the entire league. For your loved ones feeling the Eagles fever, we have a few really cool gift ideas.

1. The Wentz jersey

This is a no-brainer, and for $99 on NFLshop.com it’s actually reasonable. He might be the league MVP and the jersey is popping up everywhere.

2. A cheesesteak tee

The Philadelphia T-shirt company has been churning out incredible sports-related merch for years. This year’s slew of Eagles gear contains one of our favorites, a “Philly Blount” shirt — an obvious play on the cigar brand and the Birds’ running back. Here’s a link.

3. An ornament

Every Delaware Valley christmas tree needs more green this winter, and of the many ornaments out there for Eagles fans this is our favorite.

4. Eagles word art

A local artist named Daniel Duffy has been creating a unique set of works of art made from words with a local sports flavor. This list of every Eagles player is spectacular. He also has several for other area teams, as well as musicians like Bruce Springsteen.

Another local artest, Paul Carpenter, offers unique and brilliant illustrations on beer glasses, a can’t miss gift for a Birds fan as well.
