Nick Foles will be remembered by Philadelphia Eagles fans for the "Philly Special" in Super Bowl 52 but other fans know him for his nickname. While with the Eagles, Foles got the nickname Big D**k Nick (BDN) from then-teammate and linebacker Conor Barwin.
Barwin did a Reddit AMA in 2014 where he answered questions from fans. The linebacker was able to choose which questions to answer and somehow the size of the players "weiners" were asked.
This was the question asked in that AMA:

Here is the response in the thread answered by Barwin:
What adds to the legend of the nickname is that interaction is a question that was answered on the official Eagles Reddit account. It gave off the impression as though the team was making that statement. Along with Barwin's assertion, Deadspin also added in a 2018 blog post that Foles had the BDN nickname while at the University of Arizona.
Deadspin said the Indianapolis Colts quarterback also picked up the nickname "Footlong Foles" while at Arizona. Yet, it's difficult to know how genuine these claims are. In 2019, the news publication, The Philly Voice, reached out to Barwin to see if he wanted to say anything more about the 2014 comment. Barwin said:
"I think I'll just leave it there. Happy as hell for him!"
Former Eagles teammates also joined in on the joke about Foles, possibly confirming the size. Offensive center Lane Johnson joked about the former Eagles quarterback leaving behind a certain protective product:
While Foles' "private parts" were deemed large, so was his play in Super Bowl 52 versus the New England Patriots.
Big D**k Nick Foles' performance in Super Bowl 52
Nick Foles played really big on the biggest stage for the Eagles in Super Bowl 52. He went 28 of 43 passing for 373 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. In the second quarter, he caught a touchdown from tight end Trey Burton, aka the "Philly Special". He added even more to the legacy with the Eagles by winning the Super Bowl MVP award.
Currently in his 11th season in the NFL, his time with the Philadelphia Eagles will not soon be forgotten. Some fans and former Eagles teammates will always see Nick Foles from a bigger perspective.
