The Philadelphia Eagles are the 2025 Super Bowl Champions. Former Eagles’ great Nick Foles was enjoying the game on Sunday, as you might imagine. He was chiming in throughout the game on his Twitter account. And Foles didn’t hesitate to take a savage shot at Tom Brady in one of his final tweets of the night.

“It’s really cool that Tom Brady got to be there for the Eagles’ two Super Bowl wins! He might be a good luck charm!”

Tom Brady and Nick Foles are forever linked due to their matchup in Super Bowl LII, won by Foles’ Eagles 41-33 over Brady’s Patriots.

In that game, Foles famously caught a touchdown pass on 4th and Goal near the end of the first half, dubbed the “Philly Special.” It is an iconic play in Philadelphia Eagles lore. Brady meanwhile, failed on a similar play earlier in the game, dropping a would-be catch for a first down.

So, Brady and Foles reunited, sort of, for a commercial for NoBull for Super Bowl LIX.

Is Brady still salty about it? Maybe, considering he referenced luck a good amount in regard to Foles’ catch and performance. But nonetheless, Super Bowl LII was a thriller and the first title for the Eagles in franchise history.

Brady, a seven-time winner, definitely knows the feeling of winning a championship. But perhaps that one stings a little bit, even though he and the Patriots won the very next season and Brady would go on to win one with the Tampa Bay Bucs two years after that.

Over the course of his career, Foles finished his career with 14,227 yards, 82 touchdowns, 47 interceptions and a 62.4% completion percentage. In 2013, Foles set an NFL record for 27 touchdowns and two interceptions for the best ratio for a single season.
