Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Jets: Injury Report and Starting Lineup - August 27, 2021

The Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Jets close their 2021 preseason with their third game after a week of joint practices between the two teams. It's one last opportunity for Zach Wilson and Jalen Hurts to get used to their new offenses before the new season starts.

Results have been different for the two teams in the preseason. The Eagles have lost both their games, while the Jets are yet to lose. Robert Saleh would surely love to go undefeated in his first experience as head coach, but Nick Sirianni will not want to close the preseason 0-3.

The Eagles were wrecked by the New England Patriots last week, but the team was playing without a lot of their starters. The New England Patriots on the other hand had their first team on the field for a longer duration. Philadelphia's defensive line was a problem for New York's protection all week long, so how will Zach Wilson react when he meets the turf a couple of times?

Eagles vs Jets series history

The matchup between the Eagles and the Jets happens every four years in the regular season, and the results are incredibly lopsided. The teams have faced each other 11 times with Philadelphia winning on all occasions.

In their most recent game, during the 2019 season, the Eagles won fairly easily against the Jets, scoring 31 points and conceding only 6. Carson Wentz was the Eagles' quarterback for the day, while the Jets missed Sam Darnold because of a mononucleosis diagnostics test. They had to start Luke Falk, who failed to impress.

Henrique follows the Philadelphia Eagles closely due to Michael Vick's historic performance on MNF against the Washington Commanders in 2010. His all-time favorite player is Ed Reed; he believes that Reed is the greatest safety to ever play the game. Bill Belichick gets the nod as Henrique's favorite coach for coaching the Patriots to glory over two decades.

If Henrique were to be able to go back in time and watch one game, it would be Super Bowl XLIX, where the Patriots and the Seahawks played a complete, back-and-forth game that concluded with one of the biggest talking points in NFL history.

Technical deep dives are Henrique’s specialty, and he ensures never to use misleading words in his articles, since he himself consumes a lot of information off the web. He has had the privilege of interviewing Cairo Santos, Lamar Jackson, Jim Harbaugh, Sean McDermott, Bruce Arians, Matt LaFleur, among others.

Aside from football, Henrique likes to play poker and Counter-Strike.
