Timmy Brown


There have been few players for the Eagles who have displayed the exciting all-around talent of halfback Thomas (Timmy) Brown, who played for the Birds from 1960 thru 1967. A great kick returner, during most of his career he was also considered one of the finest halfbacks in the NFL, both as a runner and receiver out of the backfield.

Tom Dempsey


Tom Dempsey was placekicker for the Eagles from 1971 thru 1974, but the most famous moment in his pro football career came the season before he joined the Birds, when he booted a game-winning 63-yard field goal for the New Orleans Saints. It made him an overnight sensation, but didn’t guarantee him job security – a twist of fate that would work to...

Ben Hawkins


Blazing down the field, chin strap dangling, and often making spectacular plays, wide receiver Ben Hawkins played for the Eagles from 1966 to 1973. He was one of the finest deep threats they have ever had.

The Hawk was drafted by the Eagles in the 3rd round in 1966 out of Arizona State. After a rather quiet rookie season (14 receptions and...
