The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the New York Giants 22-21 Thursday night in a comeback win at home from being 11 points down with less than seven minutes left.

After scoring a touchdown, the Eagles’ two-point conversion attempt failed, but then quarterback Carson Wentz threw an 18-yard touchdown pass to Boston Scott with 40 seconds left to go ahead by one point.

They tried and again failed with a two-point conversion, but Giants quarterback Daniel Jones was sacked and then fumbled on the next possession.

 

NFL Moves Sunday Games

The National Football League has moved Sunday's game between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Las Vegas Raiders from 7:20 p.m. to 3:05 p.m. in an “abundance of caution” to make sure a game would be available for prime time after Raiders tackle Trent Brown tested positive for the coronavirus Wednesday.

The Seattle Seahawks-Arizona Cardinals game has been moved into the slot. In addition to Brown, four Raiders linemen and a safety were put on the reserve list because they'd been in close contact.
