The Philadelphia Eagles face the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night with quarterback Jalen Hurts sidelined for the season.

The Philadelphia Eagles face the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football in Week 7 action at Lincoln Financial Field, with the Eagles severely undermanned due to injuries.

The Eagles have lost four consecutive games and are without Jalen Hurts, their starting quarterback, who is done for the season. The team reported 25 players on its injury list heading into the game, including receivers DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks. Backup Tanner McKee will start at quarterback, operating behind an offensive line that has struggled to open holes in the run game and provide protection. Running back Saquon Barkley is listed as the Eagles' primary remaining offensive weapon.

The Cowboys come into the matchup in comparatively good health. Their offense features quarterback Dak Prescott, receiver CeeDee Lamb, and George Pickens. The Eagles are 4-point underdogs for the game. The Eagles' defence will be relied upon to compensate for offensive struggles against the Cowboys' passing attack.
