Hurts Leads Eagles to Last-Second Win Over Titans
The Philadelphia Eagles secured a 24-20 victory over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday, September 20, 2026, in Nashville, thanks to a last-second touchdown pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts to Darius Cooper. The win improved the Eagles' record to 2-0 on the season. The game-winning play came with just nine seconds remaining. Trailing 20-17 and without timeouts, Hurts led a nine-play, 65-yard drive, culminating in a three-yard touchdown pass to Cooper. The drive was highlighted by a crucial 19-yard completion from Hurts to DeVonta Smith along the sideline, which set up the Eagles at the Tennessee 3-yard line. Philadelphia's victory was marked by significant adversity. On the Eagles' first offensive play, star running back Saquon Barkley suffered a stinger injury. He finished the game with just four carries for nine yards and one reception for 11 yards. Barkley told reporters he would undergo an MRI to determine the injury's severity. In his absence, Tank Bigsby scored a two-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. The Eagles' offensive line was also shuffled due to injuries, with Cam Jurgens moving to left guard and Drew Kendall starting at center.
