| Date | October 26, 2025 |
| Venue | Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia, PA |

Pre-Match Context
The Eagles entered Week 8 looking to build on a five-game winning streak. Coming off their bye week, they wanted to prove their offense had shaken off an early-season slump. Running back Saquon Barkley had yet to top 100 rushing yards in a single game this season. The Giants, by contrast, were coming off their first win of the season two and a half weeks earlier over these same Eagles.
Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart had shown flashes of promise but the Giants still ranked near the bottom of the NFC East standings. Philadelphia was missing wide receiver A.J. Brown to a hamstring injury and center Cam Jurgens to a knee injury, forcing Brett Toth into his first career start.
Edge rusher Azeez Ojulari and cornerback Adoree Jackson also sat out for the Eagles. New York was already down two starting cornerbacks in Paulson Adebo and Deonte Banks battled through the game, while Chauncey Golston and Jevon Holland were ruled out before kickoff. Those absences in the secondary set up a tough afternoon for a Giants defense facing a healthy Eagles skill group.
