Eagles Players Show With Evan Mathis October 2nd 2012

Eagles/Giants

Eagles right guard Evan Mathis was the guest-host this week on "The Players Show" LIVE from Chickie's & Pete's in EHT. We played a few radio calls of Merrill Reese and Mike Quick to start the show and asked him if he was as nervous for those two kicks as most, if not all the fans were on Sunday night.

Also asked him about Mike Vick and what kind of leader he is in and out of the huddle:
