The Philadelphia Eagles faced off against the Baltimore Ravens in their preseason opener, and despite a delayed start due to weather conditions, it turned out to be an exciting match up.

The game took place at M&T Bank Stadium with the Eagles eventually winning 16-13, thanks to a dramatic last-second field goal by Jake Elliott. With only 16 seconds left on the clock, Elliott made a 49-yard kick, sealing the deal for Philadelphia.

Star players such as Jalen Hurts didn’t step onto the field, leaving the spotlight for other roster hopefuls. Among those who shined were rookie Quinyon Mitchell, who played the entire first half, and linebacker Jeremiah Trotter, who recorded a sack and led the team in tackles.

On the offensive side, running back Will Shipley made his mark by scoring a touchdown from quarterback Kenny Pickett. The Eagles tried to establish their run game, with Kendall Milton leading the charge on several key plays.

Although the game was thrilling, it also raised questions about key roster spots, especially given the performances of players like Tyrion Davis-Price and Mekhi Becton, who both have something to prove as they fight for their spots on the team.

The game also had some tense moments, particularly when Jake Elliott’s earlier kick hit the upright. Fortunately, he regained his composure to deliver the winning kick, stunning the Ravens and thrilling Eagles fans.

The Eagles’ defense looked strong, with a promising performance from rookie Quinyon Mitchell and consistent pressure throughout the game. This performance signals that Philadelphia has some exciting talent vying for final roster spots.
