The Philadelphia Eagles clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC with a win over the New York Giants, but it was tougher than expected victory and a sign that Jalen Hurts' shoulder might not be completely healed.
PHILADELPHIA − So much for the notion that the Eagles would build a big enough lead to get Jalen Hurts and many of the starters out of the game early in the second half.
All of which made for a tougher-than-expected 22-16 win over a New York Giants team resting its starters and starting a practice-squad quarterback in Davis Webb. Later in the first quarter, Hurts threw deep for Brown, hitting him for 37 yards. The Eagles got a touchdown on Boston Scott's 8-yard run for a 10-0 lead in the first quarter.
