In a strategic decision, the Philadelphia Eagles rested key players, including Saquon Barkley and Jalen Hurts, in their final regular-season game against the New York Giants, leading to a 20-13 victory. Coach Nick Sirianni's choice came after an impressive 14-win season, allowing the team to prepare for a wild-card playoff matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Despite Barkley accumulating 2,005 rushing yards this season, he fell short of breaking Eric Dickerson's single-season record. The Eagles' performance highlighted backup Tanner McKee's potential, as he delivered two touchdown passes, showcasing his readiness for the postseason.
