Nick Foles’ high school team ran the same trick play (Video)
The awesome trick play the Philadelphia Eagles ran and executed to perfection in the Super Bowl should be familiar to some folks living in Austin, Texas.
Texas Longhorns quarterback Sam Ehlinger tweeted a video during the Super Bowl that showed Westlake High School in Austin had run the same play for a touchdown in one of their games:

Like Ehlinger, Eagles quarterback Nick Foles played at Westlake High School in Austin. So did Drew Brees for that matter.
Did Foles and Doug Pederson get that play from Westlake? Who knows, but it was pretty cool to see them run it to success in such a big game
