Philadelphia Eagles Players Take 4 Boys with Terminal Illnesses on Heartwarming Shopping Trip

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- It was a dream come true for four teenagers battling critical illnesses, who went on a VIP shopping spree with their favorite Philadelphia Eagles player.

"It's definitely one of the best days of my life," said 18-year-old Christopher Brayerton of Little Egg Harbor, who spent the past year fighting a rare pediatric cancer.

Brayerton and three other boys were treated to an unforgettable experience thanks to Make-A-Wish, the Eagles, and Fanatics. The event took place at Mitchell & Ness in Center City, where the teens picked out sportswear with a $200 gift card and received a Kobe Bryant jersey.

"I've only cried about three times since I've been here because I'm so happy for him after what he went through the past year," said Brayerton's mother, Devin Fennimore. "To be able to experience this is amazing."

Hunter, 13, of Gallup, New Mexico, called the day a milestone in his recovery.

"It's been an honor. It's been like a milestone for me being back from cancer, getting to do all this stuff," he said.

The teens also got to meet Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert.

"Amazing because I get to look at everything, and I get to meet the Eagles," said 12-year-old Liam Martin of Taylor, Pa.

"I love it," added his father, Chris Martin. "Just thankful. Just happy he's having a good time."

Goedert chatted with the boys about everything from the Tush Push to the Super Bowl and said the experience meant a lot to him.

"Anytime you get an opportunity like this, it's easy to say yes to," Goedert said. "Just to be able to put a smile on these kids' faces really means everything to me."

Michelle Ruel, Make-A-Wish's marketing and communications director, said the boys will meet the team and visit Lincoln Financial Field on Friday, then attend the Eagles-Broncos game on Sunday.

"I've always dreamed of going to a game - let alone an Eagles game," said Hunter.

"I just want them to enjoy the weekend," said Goedert. "They've been through so much, and they're so well-deserving of an awesome weekend they're being given."

Eagles Legend Wants to Withdraw from Eagles Hall of Fame If Kevin Patullo Isn't Fired
Can you believe it? A living legend of the Philadelphia Eagles, LeSean McCoy, is "rebelling" and threatening to withdraw from the Eagles Hall of Fame – the place that honors his great contributions! The reason? All because of offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo! What's happening with this legendary team? Read now for the hottest NFL "drama"! On his Speakeasy show, McCoy "dropped a bomb" with a shocking statement: “Take me off. Nobody has ever asked. I’m going to say ‘Mr. Lurie, it’s either me or Kevin’. If Kevin is not fired, put 25 back out there on the street.” (Translation: "Remove me. No one has ever asked. I'm going to say 'Mr. Lurie, it's either me or Kevin'. If Kevin isn't fired, put number 25 back on the street.") Number 25 – McCoy's legendary jersey number – could be "kicked out" of the Hall of Fame if Patullo remains in position? This isn't a joke, but a direct challenge to team owner Jeffrey Lurie! This "extreme" demand stems from extreme disappointment with the disastrous performance of the Eagles' offense under Patullo. The team that once "soared high" is now "free-falling" with silly mistakes, and McCoy isn't the only one "furious." Even Josh Reynolds "cursed" Patullo: “Kevin Patullo should never see the light of day again for the crimes he’s committed…” (Translation: "Kevin Patullo should never see the light of day again for the crimes he’s committed...") Is Patullo the "culprit" causing the Eagles to "sink"? Look at the "tragedy" of quarterback Jalen Hurts: In the most recent Monday Night Football game, he threw three interceptions – one of which was blamed on AJ Brown! Comparing this year's offensive stats to last year? Worlds apart! The problem isn't just the weak offensive line, but also the play-caller – Patullo is "miserably compared" to Kellen Moore, who once elevated the offense to new heights. The article points out: The Eagles are repeating a "historical curse" – the offense always "collapses" after losing a good coordinator, like in previous Super Bowl runs. Nick Sirianni is heavily criticized for the decision to hire Patullo: "A fatal mistake"! 👀 Eagles legend LeSean McCoy says if #Eagles do not fire OC Kevin Patullo he wants out of Hall of Fame “Take me off. Nobody has ever asked. I’m going to say ‘Mr. Lurie, it’s either me or Kevin’. If Kevin is not fired, put 25 back out there on the street”📸 @speakeasytlkshw pic.twitter.com/DcOkLiQejA — Jeff Skversky (@JeffSkversky) December 10, 2025 And the "darkest" data: In shotgun formation (51 plays), the Eagles only achieved 4.2 yards/play, 2.2 yards/rush, 5.2 yards/pass, with 4 "stupid" interceptions. But under center (15 plays)? Explosive with 10.2 yards/play, 8.8 yards/rush, 16.0 yards/pass, and 0 interceptions! Clearly, the offense performs "miraculously" better when balanced – so why is Patullo still "stubbornly persisting" with the outdated play style? Eagles fans are "boiling with rage": Will the team listen to McCoy and "deal with" Patullo to save the season? This drama is "exploding" on social media! McCoy – with his illustrious career at the Eagles – is he really withdrawing from the Hall of Fame? Or is this a "ploy" to push for change? Who will Jeffrey Lurie choose: The legend or the "culprit"? Don't miss out – follow now to see the "shocking" outcome of the Eagles' internal war! What do you think, comment below!
