Philadelphia Eagles Quinyon Mitchell noticeably had a great time during the team's Super Bowl LIX parade.
It all started when Mitchell was caught throwing an empty beer can in front of the Super Bowl bus to kick off the parade.

He was then spotted strolling down the street with a beer in each hand and stopped by a local reporter, and asked to send a message to Philly fans. Without hesitation, he leaned into the mic and shouted, “GO EAGLES!”

This week during Philly's OTAs, Mitchell reminisced on his drunken adventure and had something short but sweet to say about it.
“I had a good time…that’s all I’m going to say," he said with a smile.

Every single Eagles player had earned the right to let loose and fully enjoy themselves at the Super Bowl parade, celebrating their hard-fought 40-22 historic victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, especially Mitchell.
The Eagles' 2024 first-round pick finished his rookie season with 46 total tackles, two interceptions, and 12 pass breakups. Quarterbacks completed 54.5 percent of passes and two touchdowns all season versus Mitchell. He ended the year ranked sixth among all NFL cornerbacks, per PFF, and was named a Defensive Rookie of the Year Finalist.
Mitchell enters his second year in the NFL and expectations are high for the young cornerback to build on the promise he showed as a rookie. After a solid debut season marked by flashes of elite athleticism and a growing understanding of the game at the next level, Mitchell now has a full year of experience under his belt and should have an even better Year 2.
