The Philadelphia Eagles are coming off one of the best seasons in their franchise’s history. The team took home their second ever Super Bowl championship after taking down the daunted Kansas City Chiefs in convincing fashion.
Going into 2025, fans expect this team to once again compete for a championship. However, one player might not get a chance to suit up for Philadelphia this ever again.

According to John McMullen of Sports Illustrated:
Tanner McKee’s sprint to preseason immortality obfuscated a poor start by the Philadelphia Eagles’ defense on Thursday night, which allowed consecutive touchdown drives by the Joe Burrow-led Cincinnati Bengals offense.
When Burrow, perhaps the best quarterback in the NFL right now, left after two drives, he was 9 of 10 for 123 yards with 2 touchdowns and a 157.5 passer rating.
The main protagonist on the opposite end of Burrow’s brilliance was All-Pro triple crown receiver Ja’Marr Chase with 4 receptions for 77 yards and a 36-yard touchdown in which he undressed Kelee Ringo.
Burrow delivered it to Chase in the flat, and Ringo overcommitted against perhaps the NFL’s top playmaker, who pivoted inside and coasted to the end zone.
It was an ugly opening salvo from the player perceived to be the top candidate to be the heir apparent to six-time Pro Bowl CB Darius Slay, a cap casualty who signed with Pittsburgh in the offseason.
Here is a look at the play:
