The 700 Level explains this post — a signed note from Bill Clinton — on Connor Barwin’s Instagram account:

It started with the 42nd President getting his very own Connor Barwin jersey last October when the pair met. And now President Clinton appears to be a regular old pen pal of No. 98.

Barwin is one of the more active Eagles in the community, both here in Philadelphia and abroad thanks in part to his work with NRG Energy installing solar panels at places in need of energy solutions.

Barwin is also known as a pretty big SEPTA fan. Through his Make the World Better foundation he’s done work toward revitalizing Ralph Brooks Park at 20th and Tasker. Is he the coolest athlete on the Philly scene right now? Maybe.
