This is not a flashback from the 1970s: Bird fans with headbands, aviator glasses and fake beards just represent quarterback Gardner Minshew II.

Due to an ankle injury, Jalen was sidelined with an injury. Substitute QB made his first debut in Philadelphia on Sunday at the home court of the New York Jets. He turned it into his first victory, starting with a perfect first half and a 33-18 victory for the Eagles, which brought an impressive performance.

Acquired by Philadelphia in August, Minxiu gained acclaim during his brief time in Jacksonville, partly because of his talent - partly because of his style.

As a rookie QB in 2019, he set an NFL record in his first three games in Florida. After Jaguar's regular quarterback (Nick Foles, by the way) recovered from injury, Minshew returned to his bench.

But the enthusiasm of the fans hardly weakened the enthusiasm of the Mississippi, his grandfather apparently hoped that he was named Beowulf. His fashion choices, on-site strength and calm attitude have won him a large number of followers and inspired the inspiration for the phrase "Minshew Mania".

Below is a summary of the components that make up this 25-year-old’s unique appearance.

The'stache legend began in college, where Mingxiu's bushy face led his teammates in Washington State to create a record season. When he entered the NFL, its edges gradually grew longer and inspired the Wall Street Journal's trend article about fans cultivating their own Fu Manchu.

During the pandemic, the beard turned into a beard, covering Mingxiu's face, but after joining the Eagles, he shaved his chin and restored the classic look of Burt Reynolds.

All the previous affairs and the following parties were Mingxiu's way of life, and he was very proud of his mullet.

In April last year, he was poetic about the slight change in style. He said that a new hairdresser told him to say goodbye to "dirty diesel curtains" and replace them with more delicate mullet, which he called "platinum powered fur."

A few months later, he chopped off the tail of the mullet, which led to headlines of fans mourning the loss of the mullet.

Whether his hair is long or short, Minshew always looks ready to spend the night in a disco or date a flower girl, thanks to his signature headband.

The thick waistband on his forehead has a variety of styles, from folded headscarves to kamikaze neckties. The value of this thing goes beyond making his eyes sweat; it is a statement of confidence.

Who is Biden? Minshew may now be the largest supporter of aviator sunglasses in the Philadelphia area. His face is almost never without glittering gold rims and black oval lenses.

Minshew sometimes guides the "high ambitious" by matching colors with classic bomber jackets.

Moving down the quarterback's 6 feet 1 inch body, you will see his last iconic fashion item: leggings.

Whether men's tailored jeans shorts is rude or the sexiest thing is controversial, but we know two things about them and Minshew. One, they are his favorite clothes—when he was selected in the NFL draft, he wore tights (and only tights)—second, he tailored them himself.

Put together, this is a style that Phillies might like.
