Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean WHO?!

Philly fans appeared to be less interested in the Philadelphia Eagles' top 2024 NFL Draft picks and more interested in security guard "Big Dom."

DeJean joined Kay Adams on the Up and Adams Show where he revealed just how famous Big Dom is.

"We were walking around with him at the [Sixers] game and me and Q were taking pictures for him with fans," DeJean said. "It was awesome."

Big Dom is the most famous Philladephian change my mind.

Big Dom has been with the Eagles since 1999, so he knows a thing or two about Philly fans and offered some unsolicited to the rookie.

"The biggest advice I've gotten is just work your tail off and these fans will love you," DeJean said. "They either love you or they hate you. I'd rather be on the loving side of that."

Well, it sounds like they don't even know you, DeJean ... yet! HA.

Cooper DeJean says Big Dom is so famous that when they all went to the Sixers game together, fans were asking him and Quinyon Mitchell to take pictures FOR them with Dom.

In all seriousness, DeJean will be loved just as much as Big Dom in no time given his elite speed and Swiss army knife-like abilities to play several positions in the secondary.
