Jim Gardner honored by the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — Our very own Jim Gardner was on the field at the Linc to cheer up the fans before the Eagles took on the Saints.

He led the crowd at Lincoln Financial Field in the Eagles Fight Song!

The Birds also gifted Jim a number 46 jersey, complete with his last name on the back.

The number 46, of course, represents the number of years he was with us here at Action News before retiring two weeks ago.

Unfortunately, the Eagles fell to the Saints 20-10.
