Philadelphia Eagles vs New York Jets NFL odds, picks, TV channel and live stream - August 27 | NFL preseason 2021
It may just be preseason, but the New York Jets have turned a corner and have shown improvement on both sides of the ball. 1
The Jets are 2-0 in the preseason. Defense-minded head coach Robert Saleh and rookie quarterback Zach Wilson have been impressive so far. Their first win came against in-stadium rivals the New York Giants in Week 1. Their second was over the Green Bay Packers in Week 2.
The Philadelphia Eagles are on the other end of the spectrum with an 0-2 record in preseason so far. The Eagles started back-up quarterback Joe Flacco last week against the New England Patriots after Jalen Hurts had a stomach illness that required him to leave the stadium and seek medical treatment. The Eagles had just 163 yards on offense in their 35-0 loss to New England.
The Jets hosted the Eagles in joint practice all week long. Hurts participated and is ready to take the field against the Jets on Friday. Whether the Eagles decide to start him and the rest of the starters is still unclear.
