Daily News | Randall Cunningham, Jalen Reagor & Super Bowl LII: Eagles, Vikings have connections
The week after the Eagles hired little-known Green Bay quarterbacks coach Andy Reid, in January 1999, the most talented quarterback in team history was trying to make history in Minnesota.
Anderson was a former Eagle, too. He’d made 59 field goals in 1995 and 1996 for the Eagles. He’d been teammates in Philadelphia with Cunningham in 1995, the season before Cunningham’s one-season retirement. Cunningham returned to the NFL with Minnesota in 1997, which was the second season in a row that Reggie White, perhaps the greatest defender in NFL history, led assistant coach Reid’s Packers to the Super Bowl.
However, in a preseason practice Aug. 30, Vikings starter Teddy Bridgewater dislocated his knee and tore his ACL. The Vikings were defending NFC North champions, Super Bowl contenders that year, and, suddenly, desperate for an accomplished veteran quarterback. Would Philadelphians be welcoming to the “Minnesota-nice” Vikings fans? No. Eagles fans acted so badly around the city and inside the stadium that, after the game, a cascade of donations and apologies flooded into the Mike Zimmer Foundation.
