One can forgive Dale Earnhardt Jr. if he brushes the wall on the opening lap of the Pocono 400.
NASCAR's most popular driver will be driving a Philadelphia Eagles-themed car in the Monster Energy Cup Series race June 11 at Pocono Raceway.
Earnhardt's sponsor, Axalta Coating Systems, and the National Football League team are partnered in a program call All-Pro Teachers, which recognizes outstanding sixth through 12th grade teachers who concentrate on science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). To help promote the program, Earnhardt's No. 88 Chevrolet will be decked out in Eagles team colors - midnight green, black and silver - and logo throughout the course of the weekend.
