In the summer of 2004, during Feagles' second season with the New York Giants, he offered newly drafted quarterback Eli Manning his #10, which was the same number that Manning wore in college. In exchange, Feagles and his family received an all-expenses-paid vacation to Florida paid for by Manning.[4] He switched to 17 until wide receiver Plaxico Burress wanted the number; Feagles sold the number to him in exchange for a new kitchen in his house.
He was a member of the New York Giants in their Super Bowl XLII win over the New England Patriots on February 3, 2008, the first, and only Super Bowl of his 20-year career. At 41 years, 10 months, 26 days of age, he was the oldest player to have played in a Super Bowl, until the Colts' Matt Stover broke the record in 2010.[5]
Feagles earned his second career selection to the Pro Bowl in 2008.
On April 30, 2010, after the Giants opened mini-camp, Feagles announced his retirement.[6] Giants head coach Tom Coughlin said about the retirement, "He is 44 years old. He worked very hard for approximately a month right after the season just to try to tell himself again that he could do this and wanted to be able to do it. And then ran into some -- as we went on and started the offseason program -- ran into some of the physical tests that you have to go through as you continue to advance almost on a weekly basis. He has a program which is unique to himself, but he is having some physical issues. And so he has decided to deal with them."[6]
Feagles played 22 seasons and played in every single game, 352 games overall. Feagles holds the NFL record for most consecutive games played in a career.[7] Feagles, as of 2020, is 4th all-time in most games played in NFL history; only Morten Andersen, Adam Vinatieri, and Gary Anderson have played in more games than he.[7] Due to his appearance in his final career game on January 3, 2010 (against the Minnesota Vikings), Feagles became the second-ever player professional football player (behind George Blanda) to have played in four different decades. Feagles' former teammate John Carney joined him in the four-decade club in the 2010 NFL season.
Feagles is married to Michelle. They have four sons: Christopher (nicknamed C.J.), Blake, Trevor, and Zachary. Christopher was a punter for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill football team and played in the US Army high-school All-American game in 2008.[9] Blake played wide receiver for UConn in 2013 and 2014.[10] Zach is currently a punter at Rutgers University and won the starting job as a freshman in 2017.[11] Trevor did not pursue collegiate football, but currently attends Loyola University Maryland.[12]
Feagles currently resides in Ridgewood, New Jersey where he is a residential and commercial real estate agent for Keller Williams.
He is also a member of the New York Giants Broadcast Team responsible for pre- and post-game radio content along with analysis on the Fox Giants Post Game Live show.
Upon his retirement, Feagles was the 2nd to last active player behind John Carney to appear in the NES classic video game, Tecmo Super Bowl.[13]
