Parker addressed this mistake during a press conference on Tuesday. 

"We don't promise perfection, I'm so happy I never have," Parker told reporters. "Especially after I couldn't spell Eagles right."

Reporters in attendance laughed in response. 

The Democrat's misspelling has already been turned into a T-shirt by the independent Philadelphia sports apparel business "Philly Goat."

Parker served in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives from 2005-15, and then on the Philadelphia city council from 2015-22. 

The Eagles will face the rival Washington Commanders in Philadelphia on Sunday in the NFC Championship game for the right to advance to the Super Bowl.
