World News – US – New Eagles hero Travis Fulgham arrived on time

With the game on the line, Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz sought out Travis Fulgham, of course

And why not, the recent call-up of the practice squad had already performed the play once before, so naturally he turned it into a touchdown

Via ESPNcom’s Tim McManus, Wentz said he ironed him exactly once in training before the key moment of Sunday’s victory over the 49ers

« So we’re 2 for 2 on that one, » Wentz said « It’s just cool We broke the clique, I told him to be ready I’ve seen him with this team for a while now facing our defense as a recon team and what he’s doing to our defense I was just proud of him for coming here tonight and doing the parts when asked « 

Fulgham was ruled out of the practice squad on Saturday as the Eagles ran out of bodies on Sunday, his 42-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter was the pivotal play of the game

“After we broke the clique, Carson said, ‘Get ready’ so I knew there was a good shot he would bring the ball back to me,” Fulgham said. “[I] got out off the line, I beat the corner, do what I do everyday in training We just ran

« At first I lost the ball But since Carson gave me a great throw I was able to locate him, and he was right in the bread basket »

Fulgham was one of Old Dominion’s 2019 sixth-round Lions He was with the Packers at camp this summer, claimed waivers in August, and signed with the practice squad when the Eagles had no place for him But they had to have it on Sunday, since DeSean Jackson, Alshon Jeffery, Jalen Reagor and JJ Arcega-Whiteside were not available.

Now he’s pretty much a veteran out there, considering the state of a list fixing holes everywhere
