The Philadelphia Eagles begin their Super Bowl title defense at home against their NFC East rivals, the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles return with many of the stars from last year’s championship team, including quarterback Jalen Hurts, running back Saquon Barkley and wide receivers A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith. The Cowboys just traded away their best defensive player in Micah Parsons but should be able to score plenty of points this season with an offense led by Dak Prescott and George Pickens joining CeeDee Lamb at receiver.
The Cowboys and Eagles kick off tonight at 8:20 p.m. ET (5:20 p.m. PT). The game is available to watch nationally on NBC or stream on Peacock.
Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles host the Dallas Cowboys tonight in the first game of the 2025 NFL season.
