While the Delaware Valley dealt with Winter Storm Jonas and upwards of two feet of snow in some parts, one Eagles fan favorite decided to make the best of the weather.

Connor Barwin spent part of his Saturday building quite the snowman.

Barwin, a 29-year-old linebacker/defensive lineman for the Eagles, is very much a fan favorite in Philadelphia. A blue-collar player, Barwin is well known for using public transportation to travel to games. 

Barwin is 6'4", so a life-sized snowman is quite the feat.

The Philadelphia area received roughly 21 inches of snow on Saturday in a blizzard that halted all sports action for 24 hours.
