Martin Truex Jr.’s incredible hot streak has continued — this time as a fan.
The 2017 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion still is basking in the glow of his eight-win championship season for Furniture Row Racing, and he has another reason to celebrate: His Philadelphia Eagles are champions, too.
The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New England Patriots, 41-33, in Super Bowl LII. Truex Jr., a New Jersey native and lifelong Eagles fans, got to soak it in from the stands. He was in attendance following his work on NBC’s pre-game show with buddies Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Ryan Blaney.
