Philadelphia Eagles – Nick M.F. Foles

I’ll let you guess what the “M.F.” stands for as I’m not allowed to say it on this site. Nick Foles would be the ultimate pick-up in a Fortnite match.

Here’s a kid that you’ve written off. He had a short, decent run back in the day but his skills just don’t cut it anymore. Until you suddenly need him. Only then do you realize he is unequivocally the best player on earth.

The Super Bowl LII MVP was incredible through the post season with the Eagles. Here are some mind-blowing stats from Foles’ playoff run (via NBC sports): He threw a combined 14 incomplete passes in the second half of all four playoff games. His passer rating was over 100 in each game. He has the highest post season completion percentage in NFL history (71.9%).  He’s the only quarterback in NFL history to catch a pass in the Super Bowl (which is now a necklace. You’re wild, Philly).

Foles in Fortnite would be a game-breaker. This guy is going to cowboy your squad a win by any means possible. One-on-four? Four more eliminations for Foles. Low ground? Watch him take you down from below. Teammates lagging? Foles calls his own number.

Landing location: It doesn’t matter. Put this kid anywhere on the map and you’ve already lost.

Favorite weapon: Foles would win a Fortnite match without picking up a weapon. He’s a beast. Watch him pick-ax his way to a seven-elimination victory royale. Nothing you say about Foles could surprise me after that Super Bowl LII run.
