Eagles-Giants Preview: Should Jalen Hurts Play Against the Giants?
We first want to send our thoughts and prayers to the Buffalo Bills' Damar Hamlin and the Bills community during this difficult and challenging time. Should Jalen Hurts play against the Giants on Sunday if he’s not 100 percent healthy?

Sheil and Ben also reviewed the film from the Saints' loss, and maybe the defense wasn’t so bad after all. Hosts: Sheil Kapadia and Ben Solak Learn more about your ad choices.

Eagles-Cardinals Postgame Reaction: The Eagles Are Still Undefeated!
