Drew Pearson retired from the NFL after the 1983 season, but his hostility toward the Philadelphia Eagles never died.
Pearson spent the entirety of his career with the Dallas Cowboys and trolled the crowd at the Philadelphia Museum of Art mercilessly while announcing his former team's second-round pick.
"I'd like to thank the Eagles fans for allowing me to have a career in the NFL," Pearson said as the crowd's boos continued to amplify.
Pearson won Super Bowl XII with the Cowboys and was named to four Pro Bowls during the 1970s.
The Cowboys selected Chidobe Awuzie with the pick.
