In the Front Row | Vince Papale: 50 Years, 3 NFL Seasons & One "Invincible" Story

Vince Papale returns to In The Front Row for the second time to look back on two major anniversaries in his remarkable story: 50 years since his 1976 Eagles tryout and 20 years since the release of Disney's Invincible.

Papale spent three seasons with the Eagles from 1976–78 after making the team at age 30.

But the story didn't end when his playing career ended.

In this conversation, Vince talks about the 30-year journey between making the Eagles and seeing his life story reach the big screen.  He reflects on what it was like to watch Mark Wahlberg portray him in Invincible, how the movie changed his life, and what it means to still be telling the story five decades after that original tryout.

We also go back to the beginning — the decision to take the chance on an Eagles tryout, the experience of making the roster, his three seasons in Philadelphia, and the moment his football story eventually became a Hollywood story.
