Philadelphia opened 1-0 in a 24-20 snatch of a win over Dallas, with Jalen Hurts stacking efficiency (19 of 23, 152 yards) while piling up 62 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries. The win came with Jalen Carter ejected early for spitting at Dak Prescott, forcing interior reps for Jordan Davis and Moro Ojomo as Day 1 rookies Jihaad Campbell and Andrew Mukuba manned big snaps at linebacker and safety. Adoree' Jackson and Jakorian Bennett were tested, and Jahan Dotson delivered three grabs for 57 yards as A.J. Brown was largely quiet. Additionally, Braden Mann pinned keys kicks and Zack Baun and others swarmed the field. Duke the Cowboys misdirection to special teams, Turpin saw limited returns. This Week 1 showing hints at fantasy value across Hurts's rush-heavy scoring, Campbell's three-down versatility, and Mukuba's early safety reps, while cautioning on a banged-up defense post Carter's ejection.

Philly arrives Week 1 with a near-healthy roster, four key players participating fully in the final injury report and Tanner McKee listed out. Jalen Hurts and the offensive line get a big boost from Landon Dickerson back, while interior disruptor Jalen Carter anchors Philly’s D. Andrew Mukuba adds splash potential as a rookie safety, and Joshua Uche offers veteran linebacker depth as Philly reloads on defense. Sam Howell steps in as QB2 for the opener as Dallas seeks an upset.

Week 1 previews hinge on Philadelphia’s balance: a dominant OL with renewed protection and a defensive front capable of pressuring Dallas’ attack, especially with Carter and Uche creating interior pressure. Howell’s presence as contingency adds intrigue, while the Eagles march toward a championship arc despite the Cowboys’ hunger for a curtain-raiser upset.
