Jalen Hurts throws 3 TD passes and Eagles stuff Commanders’ late 2-point try for 24-22 win
Philadelphia's Jalen Hurts completed an impressive performance, throwing for 203 yards and three touchdowns, leading his team to a 24-22 win over the Washington Commanders. This was the Eagles' first regular-season victory under coach Nick Sirianni since 2021. The team's offensive coordinator, Sean Mannion, made his debut as the offensive coordinator for the two-time reigning NFC East champions.
Mannion's system proved effective, particularly for tight end Dallas Goedert, who had four catches for 77 yards and two touchdowns. Hurts' first touchdown came on a 64-yard play-action pass to Dontayvion Wicks, who had the longest reception of his career in the trade from Green Bay. Hurts sealed the victory with a 43-yard touchdown pass to Goedert, extending the Eagles' lead to 24-16.
The Commanders, led by Jayden Daniels, managed to score two touchdowns but fell short in the final moments.
