The Eagles were absolutely trounced 51-26 by the Dallas Cowboys in their season finale Saturday, although they had won six of their seven games prior.
Starting QB Jalen Hurts was rested for the Week 18 defeat while starting RBs Miles Sanders (hand), Boston Scott (COVID) and Jordan Howard (COVID) all missed the defeat as well. Hurts is expected to be good to go against the Buccaneers, while the running back situation remains more fluid.
Philadelphia is returning to playoffs after missing the postseason last year.
The Bucs finished the season with three-straight victories and wins in seven of their last eight games. QB Tom Brady finished the season with 5,316 passing yards and 43 TDs, both of which lead the NFL, but he’ll be without two of his top weapons for the playoffs as WRs Chris Godwin (MCL, ACL) and Antonio Brown (cut from team) will both be absent for the playoff push.
Tampa Bay won the Super Bowl last season, their first with Brady under center.
