It was 4th and goal near the end of the second quarter in Super Bowl LII when the Philadelphia Eagles dialed up a trick play featuring RB Corey Clement, TE Trey Burton and QB Nick Foles. On the play, Foles moved up behind his offensive line and the ball was directly snapped to Clement who pitched the ball to Burton who then threw the ball to a wide open Foles. Foles scored the touchdown and became the first player in NFL history to both throw and catch a touchdown pass in a Super Bowl.
The Eagles would defeat the Patriots 41-33 and the play became known as the Philly Special or 'Philly Philly.'
