The Philadelphia Eagles kicked off their 2022 preseason schedule with a home game against the New York Jets. A little strange to type since these two teams ...
But then the Jets easily scored a go-ahead touchdown on the very next play. Covey was back for the Eagles’ fourth kick return but the ball was kicked through the end zone for a touchback. Dean did later whiff on a Jets run to the left side. Covey was back for the Eagles’ fifth punt return, which went for a 5-yard gain. Brooks ran for a 1-yard gain and the Jets called their first timeout. I would note that, if not for the late hit penalty, the offense would’ve had to go for it on 4th-and-5 after he bailed a clean pocket for no gain. Covey was also back for the Eagles’ fourth punt return, which was a fair catch. The fourth Siposs punt went for 59 yards, a bomb. Hurts broke off a run for a touchdown but it was called back for a holding penalty on Mailata. Hurts eventually capped off the drive with a touchdown throw to an open Goedert for a 22-yard score. Covey was back for the Eagles’ third punt return. Huntley was back out for the third kick return. Jason Huntley was back for the Eagles’ first kick return.
The Eagles' first team offensive delivered but the reserves couldn't hold up late.
On a positive note, Dean was given the opportunity to communicate the defensive calls. OL Penalties - The Eagles’ strength was a little sloppy early with the Mailata holding call and three false starts on Lane Johnson, Sua Opeta and Andre Dillard during the first half. RB/KR Jason Huntley - The speedy back got a ton of traffic with Kenny Gainwell (hip) and Boston Scott (concussion) unavailable. "I was just a whole player and I was playing visual on [Jets QB Zach Wilson]," White said. OC Cam Jurgens - The Eagles didn’t play it safe with the rookie center after Jason Kelce’s elbow surgery. Hurts previously took it in on the ground as well, only to be called back on a Jordan Mailata holding penalty.
The first-team offense marched down the field, distributing the ball around, in an 80-yard drive before the defense – not to be outdone – got the ball right ...
"It felt great, coming off the illness I had, it was amazing being in front of the Philly crowd," he said. I had my mother, my father, my brothers, my sisters, my nieces, my cousins … It was hard when I was in California, so now that I'm here, they are front and center and I'm so glad for their support." Good job to everybody that had the opportunity to go out there and play today." "It was a dream come true, so many of my friends and family at the game," he said. Said Hurts: "I think it was good to get out there, get everybody involved, and have the opportunity to play. 4. Center Cam Jurgens started and played with both the No. 1 offense and the second team and acquitted himself very well. And center Jason Kelce is recovering from his right elbow procedure and the Eagles, while there is no timetable on the injury, are hopeful he will recover quickly with fingers crossed for the regular season opener in Detroit. 2. Linebacker Nakobe Dean swarmed the football playing with the second-team defense, recording four solo tackles and an assist. Seven plays later the offense, led by quarterback Gardner Minshew who completed 8 of his 12 passes for 81 yards, scored on a Jason Huntley 1-yard run. "Everyone was flying around and Jalen did a good job of controlling everything. "It was fun out there," Goedert said. Hurts was brilliant on the drive, doing damage in a variety of ways.

Philadelphia’s third-year quarterback Jalen Hurts was perfect on the evening, completing all six pass attempts for 80 yards and a touchdown while only playing just one series. The defense was just as spectacular and efficient, holding the Jets to just 11 total yards and a Kyzir White interception off Zach Wilson to help spur an early 14-0 lead. Hurts started things off with a 28-yard rocket to Quez Watkins before finishing the drive with a 22-yard touchdown strike to tight end Dallas Goedert.

Here's the latest Eagles stock watch after the preseason game against the Jets. By Dave Zangaro.
Sure, Sinnett led the Eagles on a 75-yard touchdown drive late in the fourth quarter, but overall, he wasn’t great. But he didn’t have a very good performance in the preseason opener. Obviously, he’s learning a new defense but there’s no guarantee he’s going to make this team and the Eagles might have some better options. LB Nakobe Dean: It’s been a very quiet training camp for the third-round pick from Georgia but he came alive some in the preseason game. He’s been doing it all training camp and might just be a real problem in the NFL. He was already drawing double teams and busting up run plays on Friday night. He’s been active and is close to a roster lock.
Eagles players reacted to the "dirty" hit that Jets linebacker Qunicy Williams landed on quarterback Jalen Hurts in Friday's preseason loss.
Hurts did the right thing on the play and stepped up and ran when nothing was open downfield, and there was space in front of him. I’m healthy, and I’m fine, and I got right back up and got to play the next play.” Instead, Sirianni said he was upset about what Williams did and the situation overall. “He has Jalen’s back, and he has all of our backs. “All I know it was just bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep,” Mailata said. Wide receiver A.J. Brown also saw the shot Williams had on Hurts, stating he thought Hurts handled himself well in the situation and continued to look sharp during the drive.
7. With Jason Kelce out for a few weeks after elbow surgery, rookie Cam Jurgens is going to play a ton in the preseason and it makes sense because the Eagles ...
The coaches will call a play for Dotson, and it will be interesting to see how Dotson responds in a game situation versus another team. Generally I like to go into great detail in my articles for this website, but I don’t think I need to explain to you what is at stake for Zach Wilson and the franchise. The quarterback impressed in his limited reps, opening the game with a 28-yard pass to Quez Watkins that immediately set the tone for his performance. Wentz has also been a fan of Dotson, favoring him throughout the off-season and training camp, along with rookie tight end Cole Turner. Dotson is expected to see sufficient time in week one, and the big lights are on for him. Hurts generally took what the defense gave him underneath and mixed in some off-script plays, including a sprint to the right to extend the play before finding Quez Watkins for a 28-yard gain. But this was a preseason game, and there was more for Hurts to gain in resisting his instinct to run, in challenging himself to do that which doesn’t come naturally to him yet. If this had been a regular season game, if there had been more at stake for Hurts and the Eagles, one could understand, if not completely excuse, his decision to use his feet to try to earn a fresh set of downs. On the Eagles’ opening drive, Jalen Hurts went 6 for 6 for 80 yards and TD pass to Dallas Goedert, for a perfect QB rating of 158.3. Quez Watkins made a nice toe-tap catch along the sideline on Hurts’ first throw of the night, which was on the run to his right. There was as much revealed about Hurts in that moment as there was in his going 6-for-6, with a 22-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Goedert, against soft Jets coverage and with the Eagles’ offensive line providing him plenty of time and protection. He efficiently led the offense to the end zone for a score. The Eagles fell to the Jets, 24-21 in their first preseason game. the Lions on Sept. 11, but if he’s not, the Eagles are in good hands with Jurgens. He’s a beast.
