It was a big night for Philadelphia sports personalities on network television on Tuesday.
Ben Simmons ate Philly cheesesteaks on Jimmy Fallon and hung with the Roots while longtime Eagles long snapper Jon Dorenbos appeared on America's Got Talent and impressed the judges with a pretty complicated card trick.
Dorenbos has been a magican for his entire career in Philadelphia and he told the AGT judges that it's something he would love to do once his football career ended. For those unfamiliar with Dorenbos' story, it's a powerful one. Magic was always an outlet for him.
He even pulled a card out of his ... back pocket last night. Even Simon Cowell was impressed.
