Jaelan Phillips Makes Instant Impact in Eagles Debut at Lambeau

Philadelphia paid a 2026 third-round pick for the former first-rounder to bolster a thin edge rotation.

Overview

  • Less than a week after the trade, Phillips played nearly 78% of defensive snaps in a 10-7 road win over the Packers.
  • He posted seven pressures, six tackles, two quarterback hits and a fumble recovery in his first game with Philadelphia.
  • Phillips recovered a first-half fumble near field-goal range and blew up a late fourth-and-1 that resulted in a turnover.
  • Jalen Carter said the team expressed trust in Phillips throughout the week and praised that he "showed out."
  • Calling the night "surreal," Phillips credited simple calls for helping him play fast and highlighted the defense’s pride in stopping the run, a promising start given his recent Achilles and ACL injuries.
