Eagles encouraging fans to wear dog masks for NFC Championship Game
The Philadelphia Eagles are embracing their underdog status.
The team announced that fans will be allowed to wear dog masks - like the ones sported by Lane Johnson and Chris Long on Saturday - when they host the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Championship Game.
Doggone it, you better believe dog masks will be allowed at @LFFStadium this weekend. Just make sure to take them off when you go through security.#FlyEaglesFly pic.twitter.com/0REb840ME7

"We're called underdogs all week, so I went and bought an underdog mask from Amazon," Johnson told Joe Giglio of NJ.com after the Eagles' divisional-round win over the Atlanta Falcons.
