Eagles-Commanders final score: Philadelphia edges out Washington for Week 1 win

The Philadelphia Eagles kicked off their campaign with a tight 24-22 triumph against the Washington Commanders at Lincoln Financial Field. Holding a 14-9 advantage at the break after contributions from Dallas Goedert, Saquon Barkley, and others, the hosts repelled a furious fourth-quarter comeback attempt by Washington to preserve the win.

Jalen Hurts led the attack by hitting 14 of his 25 throws for 203 yards alongside three scores and zero turnovers, extending the franchise's perfect record in opening contests to 6-0 during the Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni partnership. Despite the outcome, Jayden Daniels mounted a strong challenge for Washington that included an impressive scramble for a score, but a decisive late stop secured the victory for Philadelphia.
