Eight former Georgia Bulldogs suited up for the Sunday Night Football matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and Miami Dolphins.
D’Andre Swift, Jordan Davis, Nakobe Dean, Jalen Carter, Kelee Ringo and Nolan Smith represented the Dawgs as Eagles. Isaiah Wynn and Channing Tindall took the field as Dolphins.
Swift, Davis and Carter received the most snaps of the group. Jalen Carter was disruptive as usual, but Smith made a splash with his first career NFL sack late in the second quarter.

The Eagles are loaded with experience in the front seven, which has kept Smith from seeing the field much. This play is an encouraging sign for Smith’s growth in his rookie season.
The Eagle beat the Dolphins, 31-17, moving to 6-1 on the season.
