Eagles long snapper Jon Dorenbos gives another magical performance on ‘America’s Got Talent’

Philadelphia’s Jon Dorenbos cemented his status as the NFL’s best-known long snapper (quick, name another!) with another mind-blowing magic trick on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” Tuesday night.
The two-time Pro Bowler stunned judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Mel B. and Howie Mandel by appearing to have predicted what each of them would draw for him right there on live TV.
He started by setting a glass bottle next to Cowell. After instructing each judge to draw a picture of anything they wanted, Dorenbos correctly matched each picture to its artist — somewhat impressive, but not exactly magical.
But Dorenbos wasn’t finished. He had Cowell and Klum break open the bottle (“I got practice in the morning, so I gotta protect these,” Dorenbos said of his hands) to reveal four sketches identical to those drawn by the judges.
The performance received a standing ovation from all four judges. But viewers’ votes will decide if Dorenbos will advance to the semifinal round of the competition.
