    This young man just signed a four-year contract extension for 64 million and could reach 80 million with incentives. Congratulations, Jordan, you are very deserving of this extension. As an Eagles fan, I hope you spend your entire career in Philly!

      If he played in our NRL comp, the most he could probably earn is $1 mill a year, realistically he’d probably be on more like 500k p/a, and that’s in AUD

Absolutely an amazing journey. Though I'm a Chiefs fan, I hope you may flourish for years to come, Jordan. All the best.

    Who is here after his extension? I feel so proud of this young man. He is an example to all young people that with hard work and effort you can reach your goals. With no football knowledge and just a dream he competed and beat out a more experienced player. I don't even know him but when I heard of his extension I felt so happy and proud. Mailata you gave me the desire to keep on pushing and to not give up on my dreams and goals. Go Eagles!

    A dream that came true. Jordan you deserve everything. I watched the NFL pathway program for quite a few years and there’s been some very talented players, the majority only make at best the practice squad. Most coaches can’t imagine anyone getting a roster spot from outside the college set up. Well, I played rugby from 9 to 29, in England and in France, in the 1980’s & 90’s. I began playing Football in 1984, i was scouted at the gym i trained at. I played 12 years D1 European leagues. On Offense (guard)… i was 6ft5 and 290 lbs, my twin played guard at 6ft4 and 285lbs and mike my younger brother played Defensive End at 6ft5 and 260lbs.
    I’m not boasting but i could bench 220lbs 24 reps and i had a 40 yards time of 4.9 with no helmet and shoulder pads, but full pads on legs. Playing in Europe there were German and UK players who were great athletes. Thirty years later. . . The NFL pathway is revealing true talent. There was a receiver Anthony Dablé 6ft5 220 lbs receiver 36 TD’s in 2 seasons in the D1 German league. The best WR in Europe, he was on the practice squad at the Atlanta Falcons… he was never given a decent chance.
    The Philadelphia Eagles use their most important equipment to scout talent it’s called EYES. SUPERBOWL All pro, not bad for a 7 round draft

      Yeah, he's the NRL equivalent of a good (but not great) college football player - but one who was a physical freak. In fact, physically I think the NFL suits him much more than Rugby League, which has more endurance required.
      The interesting thing is where he might have success - he could be a great o.tackle with his lateral movement, could play as an in-line tight end (where I suspect he might get some situation-specific looks over the first couple of years), or really anywhere on the defensive line - has speed for the edge, size to be the nose and explosive athleticism to compete inside as a 3-tech, if he really worked at it. Sounds as though defense isn't going to be a consideration, though.

    • @BayAreaSun
      @BayAreaSun 6 лет назад +16

      Who gives a rats ass where or what level he played in Rugby. He's got the body and size to play tackle in the nfl. He was drafted into the nfl...that alone says something about his chances. He can't play tight end because running with the ball in Rugby and getting hit is like day and night if he was to trying to catch and run with the ball in the nfl. There's a reason why your taught to "keep your head on a swivel".

    And years later, he's one of my favorite eagles of all time. I pray he goes down the path of other veterans like Jason. Brandon, Fletch, and Lane (Stay with philly). He was a diamond in the rough and we're lucky to have him.

    Good luck young man. please note his background is in rugby LEAGUE. There are two rugby codes. Rugby LEAGUE is Jordan's background. The other thing is that the footage shows him at junior level. He's a physical freak to be sure but at the NRL level (National Rugby League) which he never played, he wouldn't have the liberties seen in his highlight reel. forward in RL makes 30-50 tackles per MATCH plus runs the ball around 20-30 times. This makes rugby LEAGUE special and the athletes who succeed are incredible.
