Welcome to our Rookie Diary Series with Eagles running back Will Shipley.

Each week, I'll talk to the fourth round pick from Clemson

to get his thoughts on his first season in Midnight Green.

We hope you enjoy.

Thank you. So what was it like playing in the elements last Sunday?

Yeah, it was unbelievable.

You know, it's really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play in an atmosphere like that.

And with the weather conditions and just how everything came together.

So, yeah, it was definitely a special moment for this team, for myself, for my family and I,

to have them there with me watching me.

So, yeah, it was awesome.

I know it's one thing to actually see it on TV.

You never played in that before.

What did you have to do differently?

Yeah.

You know, I didn't have to do much differently, thank God,

because we just got such a good equipment staff and such a good support staff.

So, you know, they really prepared you for it.

You know, make sure you had all the right equipment.

You know, Coach Nick and Coach Singleton,

just kind of getting us in the right mindset of stuff we may have to do.
