Jon Dorenbos isn't just a two-time Pro Bowler and one of the NFL's best long snappers.

The Philadelphia Eagles player is also skilled in the art of illusion.

Dorenbos showed off his talents by performing a magic show on the NBC reality competition show "America's Got Talent" on Tuesday.

He wowed the judges and the crowd with a multifaceted card trick.

Asked why he's pursuing magic in addition to his NFL career, Dorenbos had a simple answer.

"Let's be honest, the NFL stands for 'Not For Long,'" he told Simon Cowell. "You've always got to have a backup plan."
