The Philadelphia Eagles showcased their prowess in their Monday Night Football hammering of the Minnesota Vikings, winning 24-7 to improve to 2-0 for the season. While the Philly faithful walked away happy after a terrific performance by their team, James Harden, who was in attendance, also managed to get his hands on a souvenir.

The Philadelphia 76ers star received the ball that Eagles cornerback Darius Slay intercepted at the goal line. The Vikings conjured up a strong drive before an ill-advised throw from quarterback Kirk Cousins landed straight into the grateful arms of Slay, who returned it for 19 yards before being tackled down.

Slay then ran into the crowd behind the Eagles' endzone and handed the ball to Harden, who was visibly excited. Watch the entire sequence below:
