The Philadelphia Eagles capped off their historic 2024 season in grand fashion on Friday night, as players, coaches and staff received their Super Bowl LIX Championship Rings during a private ceremony in Philadelphia. Designed by Jason of Beverly Hills, the rings are a dazzling tribute to the Eagles’ 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs and the remarkable season that led them there. They're also the first championship rings with pop-out wings.
Weighing more than a quarter pound and measuring 1 1/2 inches across, the massive white gold rings feature a jaw-dropping 12 carats of diamonds and lab-created green sapphires. Beyond their impressive size, the rings' innovative design features and symbolism help set them apart from past championship bling.
For the first time in Super Bowl history, a championship ring includes a special button-activated mechanism that reveals a hidden message. By pressing the diamond-encrusted button at the top of the ring, two wings release from the bezel, displaying the inscription: "YOU CAN'T BE GREAT WITHOUT THE GREATNESS OF OTHERS." This quote from head coach Nick Sirianni served as a unifying mantra for the Eagles throughout their Super Bowl-winning campaign.
Each design element of the ring tells part of the Eagles’ championship story. The wings that open via the button are adorned with 0.9 carats of diamonds, symbolizing the Eagles’ six sacks and three takeaways in one of the most dominant defensive performances in Super Bowl history. The five diamonds on the button itself represent the five Eagles who scored in Super Bowl LIX: Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Cooper DeJean and kicker Jake Elliott.
On the face of the ring, the Eagles logo stands proudly in front of two Lombardi Trophies, representing the franchise’s two Super Bowl titles under owner Jeffrey Lurie. Surrounding the logo are 145 diamonds, commemorating the Eagles’ record-setting 145 playoff points. The phrase “WORLD CHAMPIONS” is spelled out with 40 diamonds, honoring the 40 points scored in the title game.
On the players' side of the ring, players' last names are featured with their jersey numbers, encrusted in diamonds, against the backdrop of Lincoln Financial Field, paying homage to the dedicated fan base.
On the team side of the ring, the Super Bowl LIX logo is centered between the Eagles wordmark and the score of 40-22 from the game. Ten points of diamonds in the Super Bowl LIX logo signify the Eagles' franchise-record 10-game winning streak in the regular season, which put the team on path for a historic run towards the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Each player's unique signature is showcased on the bottom of the ring, while the inside of the ring highlights a Brazilian flag — a nod to the Eagles’ season-opening win in São Paulo, the NFL's first game in South America. The inside also lists the scores of all four playoff games and displays Sirianni’s core values: “TOUGH, DETAILED, TOGETHER.” The boxed number 145 is the combined point total for the team's four wins.
"Our Super Bowl LIX Championship Ring represents the commitment, determination and sacrifice of every member of our organization who helped deliver another World Championship for Eagles fans everywhere," said Jeffrey Lurie, Chairman and CEO, Philadelphia Eagles. "It will forever serve as a reminder of just how magical the 2024 season was for our organization and fans."
