Growing up as a quarterback in California with aspirations to play Division I college football, and eventually call signals in the NFL, can make the demands of the sport all-encompassing.
Nate Sudfeld, the Eagles’ backup to Nick Foles, didn’t exactly grow up that way, in the Modesto area. Nate is a grandson of Bob Pagett, founder of Assist International, a humanitarian foundation that touts more than 500 projects in more than 65 countries. Ralph Sudfeld, Nate’s father, currently serves as president and CEO. Charity Navigator gives the organization its highest, four-star rating, and a 91.45 score on a 100-point scale.
