Eagles Face Packers in Wild-Card Matchup With Key Injuries on Both Sides
Philadelphia enters the playoffs as 4.5-point favorites but awaits clarity on Jalen Hurts' status, while Green Bay deals with significant roster setbacks.
- The Eagles will host the Green Bay Packers in the wild-card round on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field, with the game broadcast on Fox29.
- Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts remains in concussion protocol after missing the last two games, and his availability for Sunday is uncertain.
- The Packers are grappling with injuries, including the loss of star receiver Christian Watson and cornerback Jaire Alexander to season-ending knee injuries, while both their starting and backup quarterbacks are dealing with arm injuries.
- The Eagles finished the regular season with a 14-3 record, driven by Saquon Barkley’s franchise-record 2,005 rushing yards and the NFL’s top-ranked defense under new coordinator Vic Fangio.
- Philadelphia is the NFC's No. 2 seed and would face the second-lowest remaining seed in the divisional round if they defeat Green Bay.
