Nick Foles is a starting NFL quarterback again. Here’s what you may not remember about him.

Nick Foles will start for the Eagles this week when they take on the Giants. Barring injury, he’ll be behind center for Philadelphia for the rest of the season and into the playoffs. Foles was thrust into action after MVP candidate Carson Wentz went down with a torn ACL in Week 14.

This is Foles’ sixth season in the NFL, but he hasn’t been a steady starter since he was under center for 11 games with the Rams in 2015. He’s only thrown 14 passes this season, which leaves some questions about what fans can expect from him the rest of the way.

Nick Foles’ name may sound familiar, but maybe you can’t quite place him. You might even mixed him up with kicker Nick Folk. So let’s get reacquainted with Foles, the Eagles’ new starting quarterback.

This is Foles’ second stint in Philadelphia. The Eagles drafted Foles in the third round of the 2012 draft. He took over in Week 10 of his rookie season after Michael Vick suffered a concussion against the Cowboys and ended up starting the rest of the way.

Vick won the starting job again in 2013, but Foles came in when Vick went out with a hamstring injury in Week 5. Foles became the starter for the rest of the season, and his play earned him a trip to the Pro Bowl.

Foles posted a passer rating over 100 in nine of the 10 games he started that season. And one of those games was one for the history books.

He had a perfect game for the Eagles in 2013. The Eagles embarrassed the Raiders 49-20 when Foles tied an NFL record for the most touchdowns in a single game with seven. He joined elite company — Brett Favre, Donovan McNabb, and Tom Brady — as the only quarterbacks to throw for 250 yards and four touchdowns and preserve a perfect quarterback rating of 158.3 at the half.

But Foles took it one step further. He finished the game with 406 yards and no turnovers, and he held on to that perfect passer rating until he was pulled in the fourth quarter for backup Matt Barkley.

Foles led the Eagles to a 10-6 record that season and became the last quarterback to guide the Eagles to a playoff bid until Wentz. They lost to the Saints in the wild card round.

The 2014 season was a letdown. Foles landed on injured reserve with a broken collarbone in Week 9. That ended up being his last game with the Eagles until this season.

The Eagles almost traded Foles to the Browns that season. The Browns reportedly offered the Eagles wide receiver Josh Gordon for Foles back in 2013. Then-head coach Chip Kelly torpedoed the deal because he thought Foles had too much upside to trade away. Based on Foles’ performance that season, he was right.

Foles was traded to the Rams in 2015 — and almost retired. After the 2015 season, Foles considered retirement at the ripe old age of 26. Blame Jeff Fisher.

Foles went 4-7 in his 11 starts with the then-St. Louis Rams. He was benched twice for Case Keenum, who’s currently starting for the 10-3 Vikings.

When the Rams’ season was over and the team traded up to take Jared Goff first overall in the 2016 draft, Foles saw the writing on the wall. He knew he wouldn’t be the Rams’ long-term starter, so he asked them to release him. Four years into his career, Foles was grappling with whether or not it was even worth it to keep playing.

”You go through a lot of emotions,” Foles said, via NBC Sports Philadelphia’s Reuben Frank. “Changing teams, being traded, going there, going through that year, and once I was a free agent, we just sort of sat there and said, ‘Hey what do we want to do?’

“It was the first time I had been a free agent in my career and it was the first time I had to make a decision because I was drafted and traded. I was leaning toward not playing and stepping back.”

Andy Reid convinced him to come to the Chiefs. Reid coached Foles with the Eagles during his rookie season in 2012, and he convinced Foles to keep playing.

He didn’t get much opportunity to play behind Alex Smith. Foles replaced Smith in Week 8 when Smith went out with a concussion. His only start in Kansas City came the following week with Smith still sidelined. He went 20-of-33 passing for 187 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs’ 19-14 win over the Jaguars.

Kansas City declined Foles’ second-year option after the season, making him a free agent. That freed him up to sign with the Eagles again. If it weren’t for Reid, Foles might be watching all of this from the comfort of his couch instead of taking over for Wentz for the rest of this season.

Do the Eagles stand a chance with Foles instead of Wentz? There’s some hope. Foles entered the game against the Rams last week after Wentz was injured and he did just enough to hold on to the win.

Foles’ teammates said after his first full practice with the starters that there are some kinks to iron out, but his experience should help him get acclimated.

”It was awesome. It didn’t really seem like that big of a change because he has been there before. He is a vet, he is very smart, he knows how to make plays,” wide receiver Torrey Smith said, via Eliot Shorr-Parks of New Jersey Advanced Media.

Foles has the benefit of the second-best run game in the league. The Eagles are averaging 143 yards per game on the ground. Some of that has been Wentz, who uses his legs to keep many a play alive. But LeGarrette Blount, Corey Clement, and Jay Ajayi should lighten Foles’ load.

The Eagles have the stingiest run defense in the league and they’re allowing just 19.2 points per game, which puts them sixth in the NFL.

The Eagles’ chances of postseason success are slimmer with Foles instead of Wentz. But the rest of the team is so good that Foles still may find himself facing off against one of the other members of the Jeff Fisher Survivors’ Club — Goff or Keenum — in the NFC Championship.
