Tim Tebow and fellow Philadelphia Eagles list songs they like to hear during practice

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Tim Tebow (11) dives into the end zone past Indianapolis Colts free safety Winston Guy (27) to score a touchdown during the second half of a preseason NFL football game at Lincoln Financial Field on Aug. 16, 2015.

It is no secret that Philadelphia Eagles head Chip Kelly likes to play some music every time his team practices, and it has always been his song choices that the speakers around the field have been blaring.

But now, the rest of the team have been given the opportunity to contribute to the song lists as well, with a "Music Suggestion Box" placed at the entrance of the Eagles' locker room.

So what do the players of the Philadelphia Eagles want to sing along to as they practice?

Defensive lineman Cedric Thornton told the NJ Advance Media, "I don't think they're ready for my music. You can show your personality through different music. They ask everyone to put in their own playlists so they can put it on shuffle. You never know what you're going to get."

Veteran inside linebacker DeMeco Ryans said the players appreciate the opportunity to express themselves through music. "It's cool," he said. "Everybody has different tastes in music. We're the people who the music is for. I think it's only right that the players have input over what gets played."

As for the rest of their teammates, what songs did they suggest? Outside linebacker Connor Barwin preferred a happy and mellow tune with a hint of electronic. He suggested "I Know There's Gonna Be Good Times" by Jamie XX.

Comerback Nolan Carroll II preferred something a little more hip hop when he put in "Pipe It Up" by Migos, while safety Walter Thurmond continued the hip hop trend with Jay Z's "Picasso."

Long snapper Jon Dorenbos loves edgy songs, and that is why he suggested "Sail" by electronic rock band Awolnation. Meanwhile, Nose tackle Beau Allen had the most mainstream choice with Rihanna and Calvin Harris' "We Found Love," which features an up-tempo beat.

Lastly, Christian quarterback Tim Tebow prefers something a bit light-hearted and upbeat himself. "Eric Church, Rascal Flatts, definitely something country," he said of his music suggestion.
