If one Eagles fan gets their wish, Nick Foles will soon have a street named after him in Philadelphia.

A petition launched on Change.org asks that Mayor Jim Kenney and Philadelphia City Council rename 9th Street in Center City to "Nick Foles Way" in honor of the Eagles quarterback.

"Saint Nick will never die. Therefore, he must be immortalized in Philadelphia history," the petition reads. "While we, the undersigned, would prefer a statue of him be placed on top of City Hall, at the lectern in Independence Hall, and at the top of the steps of the Art Museum, we will settle for renaming 9th St. 'Nick Foles Way.'"

As of Sunday afternoon, over 250 people have signed the petition.
