Growing up watching her three older sisters dance, Cassidy Ritter decided to follow in their footsteps.
She trained in all different styles — ballet, tap, and jazz. Dance has always been her passion. Now, she’s representing the Eagles on Tuesday night as their Pro Bowl Cheerleader in 2026 as voted by her teammates.
“This is the biggest honor that an NFL cheerleader could have,” Cassidy said. “Our team is talented in many different ways, whether that’s representing the organization as global brand ambassadors or performing in front of 70,000 fans. Additionally, we all have very impactful careers off the field. It’s just a complete honor to be able to represent us as a whole at the Pro Bowl.
“It’s difficult to put into words. I feel that growing up in New Jersey, especially Central Jersey, there are fans of several different teams, but I think Philadelphia is just so unique. Our fans are so passionate. The energy on gameday is just unimaginable. It’s truly electric. I plan to bring that unmatched passion with me to San Francisco for the Pro Bowl games.”
