Here are some key matchups to watch when the Eagles host the Jaguars at the Linc in Week 9.
The Eagles will play host to Doug Pederson’s Jacksonville Jaguars at 4:05 p.m. on Sunday at the Linc.The Jaguars enter this game without Christian Kirk, who was lost for the season on Sunday with a broken collarbone that needed surgery. That’s a big blow for Pederson’s offense. Kirk this season had 27 catches for 279 yards and a touchdown.And the Jaguars’ other top receivers are banged up coming off the Jags’ loss to the Packers in Week 8. Rookie Brian Thomas Jr.
The former Giants tight end had a career season in 2023 with 114 catches for 963 yards and 4 touchdowns in his second season in Jacksonville. This year, Engram has 20/178/1 in four games. Engram missed four games with a hamstring strain but returned in Week 6 against the Bears and turned in a huge game with 10 catches on 10 targets for 102 yards. In the two games since, he has 9 catches for 71 yards. But he has the ability to have big games and the Eagles will need to keep an eye on No. 17.
Little, 25, was a second-round pick in 2021 but has just 18 starts in his career. This season, Little has given up 5 pressures on 77 pass blocking snaps according to PFF, which ranks him 60th out of 76 qualified tackles this season.In Cincinnati, Jalen Hurts had his best performance of the season.
