Howie Roseman's second act: From exile to executive of the year, an Eagles Super Bowl appearance

ST. PAUL, Minn. – Every member of the Eagles scattered across an arena floor on Monday night, and a group of fans spotted the one they most wanted to cheer.

Howie! Howie! Howie!

A few years ago, their calls would have included more venom than reverence. The object of their attention was once a polarizing figure in Philadelphia – and even at the Eagles’ own facility. Six days before the most significant game in 13 years, the once-exiled, now-celebrated football executive was treated like a movie star. For anyone adhering to the adage that there are no second acts in life, try explaining Howie Roseman at the Super Bowl as the architect of the Eagles.
