In a riveting – and perhaps tone deaf – interpretation of the team's fight tune following the Philadelphia Eagles' NFC championship game victory over the visiting San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, quarterback Jalen Hurts led teammates, fans, and even owner Jeffrey Lurie. 'Fly, Eagles Fly,' following the 31-7 victory, the MVP nominee performed to the Lincoln Financial Field audience.' 'On the road to victory!' Charles Borrelli and Richard Courtland Harrison, the latter of whom was an arranger for jazz guitarist Charlie Byrd, wrote the song in 1955. It's normally played at Eagles home games before the national anthem and after Philadelphia touchdowns.
