The Philadelphia Eagles posted a video to X on Monday showing their players attempting a fun challenge.

Players were instructed to run using the same arm and leg at the same time, rather than the usual opposite leg and arm.

All the players looked silly as they attempted the challenge and burst into laughter around their teammates.

After seeing the video, Good Morning Football decided to give it a try with Jamie Erdahl, Gbajabiamila and Sherree Burruss.

Edahl went first and tried so hard that his microphone equipment flew off his body during the race.

“I lost both packs, Kyle,” she said after the attempt.

Gbajabiamila was next and showed extreme confidence before leaving.

“I’ll tell you something,” he said.

“I’m so coordinated that I can be uncoordinated, that’s how coordinated I am.”

Gbajabiamila tried but did not move his arms, prompting Erdahl to shout at him to try again.

On his second attempt, he got the form right, but sprained his back as he finished the race.

“That’s tremendous,” shouted Peter Schrager as he watched.

“Now GIF!”

Gbajabiamila confirmed after the race that something went wrong with his back after the attempt.

“I got hurt because I wasn’t athletic,” he said.

“The thoracic and lumbar area has been adjusted, but I should be fine.”

Fans had fun with the challenge and shared their laughs on social media.

“That was fun haha. Yo Akbar what the hell man haha. Everyone loves brother haha,” said a fan.

“Lol I did this and it’s hilarious,” said another fan.
