The Philadelphia Eagles’ season got off to a disastrous start Sunday as the Birds, ravaged by key injuries before they even played a snap, blew a 17-0 lead against a team without a name.
But off the field, leads are being padded, not blown, as business is humming and the Eagles organization is making deals rather than breaking hearts.
The latest was announced Tuesday morning, when Sportico broke the news that the Eagles and online sportsbook FOX Bet are now partners. Among numerous details of the multi-year sponsorship deal, the most eye-catching is a plan for a 4,000-square-foot betting lounge and production studio at Lincoln Financial Field.
