Commanders vs. Eagles live updates: NFL scores, stats, highlights; Jalen Hurts suffers concussion, ruled out
LANDOVER, Md. — We’re underway at NorthWest Stadium as the NFC East is officially coming to a head. The Philadelphia Eagles can wrap up the division title with a victory over the Washington Commanders and can seal the No. 2 seed in the playoffs with a victory.
Even if the Eagles don’t wrap up the NFC East on Sunday, they boast a three-game lead in the division heading into Week 16. The Eagles are still in a race for the No. 1 seed in the NFC, and need to win out to have a legitimate shot of getting home-field advantage. The Commanders, meanwhile, lead the Seahawks by one game for the final playoff spot, meaning a win over the Eagles would be massive for their playoff chances.
A Commanders victory would also mean the Cowboys are eliminated from the playoff race. If the Eagles win, the Cowboys would still be alive heading into their matchup with the Buccaneers later Sunday night.
Saquon Barkley is also in pursuit of Eric Dickerson’s single-season rushing mark. Barkley needs 418 rushing yards to pass Dickerson, and is facing three of the eight worst rush defenses in the NFL over the last three games. The Commanders allow 132.1 rush yards per game (25th in NFL), the Cowboys allow 136.1 (29th), and the Giants allow 143.7 (31st). Those are the Eagles’ final three opponents.
We’ll keep track of the NFC East, Barkley’s record chase, and more from this matchup. Be sure to stay tuned into the live blog below!
