  "account": "On August 13, 2026, the New England Patriots took on the Philadelphia Eagles in a preseason football game at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. The game commenced at 7 p.m. ET. Both teams are expected to rest their starters, with backups taking the lead in the preseason matchup.\n\nDuring the first quarter, the Patriots started at their own 20-yard line due to a holding call on James Hudson III on the first play. A Lan Larison screen gained 28 yards for New England, but Tommy DeVito's out-of-bounds throw forced a Bryce Baringer punt, placing the Eagles at their own 22-yard line. Will Shipley scored an 18-yard touchdown run for the Eagles, but Dalton's subsequent incompletions ended the drive. A 39-yard punt by Braden Mann set the Patriots up at their own 16-yard line.\n\nNew England's subsequent drive saw DeVito scramble for seven yards and two short completions, prompting two new sets of downs. However, a sacking by Eagles linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. followed, pinning Philadelphia at their own two-yard line. A 38-yard completion to Darius Cooper and Shipley's runs set the Eagles up at the Patriots' five-yard line. Shipley then broke into the end zone for an Eagles touchdown, making it 7-0 Eagles.\n\nNew England kicked off with a 41-yard field goal by Andy Borregales, putting the Patriots ahead 10-7. Philadelphia's defense forced a three-and-out from New England. On the next drive, a sack by Gabe Jacas and pass breakups by Kindle Vildor forced Dalton into difficult spots. Running back Will Shipley extended the Eagles' offense with a 24-yard gain, but a sack by Ty Robinson led to a punt. Quarterback Behren Morton was brought in for a touchback punt with under seven minutes left in the half.\n\nIn the second quarter, New England took the lead with a 69-yard touchdown pass from DeVito to Kyle Williams. Philadelphia answered with a short touchdown by Covey, making it 10-14 Eagles. With less than a minute remaining in the half, a sack by Robinson ended the Patriots' drive. Philadelphia took over at their own 14-yard line in the third quarter, but stopped short of scoring on third down. They attempted a fourth-down conversion, but failed. Kearns took over offense at the 10-yard line in the third quarter, but an offensive pass interference call prevented a touchdown. Philadelphia took over near New England's 49-yard line in the third quarter, but a sack by Amari Gainer and a tip by Leonard Taylor III resulted in a turnover on downs. Morton led New England's offense downfield, converting third-and-long to find Hasty for a nine-yard gain. Morton completed a pass to Pa in the end zone, but was intercepted by outside linebacker Namdi Obiazor.",
