The Eagles did not practice on Christmas, and had they done so, quarterback Jalen Hurts would not have participated due to the concussion he sustained in a 36-33 loss to the Washington Commanders. Hurts’ status for Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys is in question while he is in the concussion protocol.

Kenny Pickett replaced Hurts on the drive and went 3 of 3 for 20 yards and a touchdown pass, a 4-yard throw to A.J. brown to give the Eagles an early 14-0 lead over the Commanders. Pickett targeted Brown on all three of his pass attempts, including a 10-yard completion for a first down on his first throw replacing Hurts.
