Eagles vs. Chiefs Monday Night Football highlights: Philly wins Super Bowl 57 rematch
Sweet, sweet revenge.
The Philadelphia Eagles (9-1) defeated the Kansas City Chiefs (7-3), 21-17, at Arrowhead Stadium on Monday night in a rematch of Super Bowl 57.
The Chiefs won last season’s championship, 38-35, after scoring 17 points in the fourth quarter.
This time, it was Jalen Hurts and company who came from behind to capture the victory. Hurts and D’Andre Swift scored all three of the Eagles’ touchdowns on the ground. Philadelphia was down 17-7 at halftime and the Chiefs failed to score after the break.
“In this league, it’s all about finding a way to win, whether it’s ugly in the first quarter, second quarter, third quarter, how are you gonna find a way in the end,” Hurts told ESPN’s Laura Rutledge after the game. "That’s one thing about this team tonight is we had resilience, we persevered, regardless of what happened early on, we found a way to win in the end and that’s what matters.”
Late in the fourth quarter, Patrick Mahomes faced fourth-and-25 after Marquez Valdes-Scantling dropped a pass en route to the end zone. Justin Watson dropped the deep ball on the fourth-down conversion attempt as he was covered by three Eagles defenders. The Chiefs offense has dropped a league-high 26 catches this season, according to the ESPN broadcast.
This is the first time Eagles center Jason Kelce defeated his brother, Travis Kelce. The Chiefs tight end had seven receptions for 44 yards and a touchdown. — Victoria Hernandez
NFL PLAYOFF PICTURE: Chiefs losing grip on AFC's top seed
Winners and losers from Eagles' win over Chiefs
WINNERS
DeVonta Smith comes up big: Smith provided the big plays for Philadelphia on Monday night. The wideout caught a 41-yard deep pass from Jalen Hurts that setup the game-winning touchdown midway throw the fourth quarter.
Smith’s speed and route running caused problems from Kansas City’s secondary. He finished with a game-high six catches and 99 yards. His 41-yard reception was the longest play of the night.
Tush Push, a.k.a. the Brotherly Shove: The Eagles ran the glorified quarterback sneak on three occasions and were successful each time, including on a 1-yard Jalen Hurts touchdown in the fourth quarter that turned out to be the game-winning score.
Eagles defense pitches shutout in second half: The Eagles erased a 10-point deficit at halftime, in large part due to their defense. Philly produced a shutout in the second half.
Philadelphia’s defense only allowed one drive of more than 50 yards in the second half and that Chiefs possession ended when Eagles CB Bradley Roby stripped the football loose from Travis Kelce for a takeaway.
The Eagles defense forced two turnovers, one in each half.
Philly’s red zone offense: The Eagles scored on all three of their red zone trips. All three of Philadelphia’s touchdowns came on the ground. Hurts had two rushing touchdowns. He now has nine rushing TDs this season to lead all QBs.
Baltimore Ravens on top of AFC: Kansas City’s loss (7-3) gave the Ravens (8-3) sole possession of the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoff standings.
LOSERS
Chiefs' pass offense: The Chiefs dropped a season-high five passes, including three on the final drive.
Marquez Valdes-Scantling dropped a deep pass from Mahomes that might’ve resulted in the go-ahead touchdown with under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. Two plays later, Justin Watson had the football go right through his hands on fourth-and-25.
The Chiefs' pass offense still continues to be too reliant on Mahomes and Travis Kelce. Kelce was contained to seven catches, 44 yards and a touchdown, but even the star tight end had a dropped pass.
Chiefs' second-half offense: The Chiefs offense ran out of gas again after halftime.
Kansas City had to punt four times in the second half, plus they lost a fumble and turned the ball over on downs to end the game.
The Chiefs haven’t scored in the second half in three straight games. Their last second half score was Oct. 22 against the Chargers. — Tyler Dragon
Eagles vs. Chiefs highlights
Jalen Hurts ran for a pair of touchdowns, including a go-ahead "Brotherly Shove" score in the fourth quarter, and the Eagles rallied from a 10-point halftime deficit to defeat the Chiefs in a Super Bowl rematch.
The Swift effect
Taylor Swift's absence from Chiefs games continues to feed a noteworthy, if not causative, statistical split. Kansas City dropped to 3-3 in games the pop star didn't attend this season, averaging 18.5 points in those contests — a full 10 points fewer than when she's present. Tight end Travis Kelce has averaged 8.5 receptions and 108 yards when she's watching him in person. Those numbers drop to six and 41.8, respectively, otherwise. — Nate Davis
Marquez Valdes-Scantling drop costs Chiefs dearly
Marquez Valdes-Scantling had the game in his hands.
And then it was on the ground next to him.
The Chiefs receiver had sped past the Eagles’ secondary and was on the other side of a perfectly timed and thrown Patrick Mahomes missile. Valdes-Scantling would have caught the game-winning 51-yard touchdown had he secured the ball as he dove and fell to the ground.
The Chiefs started deep in their own territory but advanced the ball to midfield thanks to a roughing the passer penalty drawn by Mahomes on a questionable flag.
Drops have plagued the Chiefs all night. Receiver Justin Watson had a fourth-and-25 attempt to save the game that hit him in his hands and had an earlier miss. Travis Kelce dropped multiple passes too
The slippery circumstances thanks to the rain falling all game certainly did pass catchers no favors for either team. — Chris Bumbaca
Eagles 21, Chiefs 17: Philly takes lead on 'Brotherly Shove'
D’Andre Swift and Devonta Smith revived the Eagles’ offense.
Following the Chiefs’ punt that wandered into the end zone, Swift took a short pass 20 yards on the second play of the drive.
Three plays later, facing a third-and-5, Jalen Hurts connected with Smith for a first down and a 13-yard gain. Then came the big play.
Swift ran a go route down the right sideline and Hurts dropped the ball right in the breadbasket. The receiver was down at 1-yard line, so the Eagles got in their customary “tush push” formation and shoved Hurts over the goal line for a 1-yard touchdown.
Philadelphia led 21-17 with 6:20 to go. Philadelphia went 80 yards in two minutes, 36 seconds. — Chris Bumbaca
Patrick Mahomes throws 17-yard dime to Justin Watson
Patrick Mahomes perhaps threw his best pass of the night in the fourth quarter.
On third-and-9, Mahomes threw a 17-yard dime to wide receiver Justin Watson for a first down. The pass dropped perfectly in Watson’s hands in tight coverage.
Unfortunately for the Chiefs, the drive stalled a few plays later and they were forced to punt the ball away on Philadelphia’s 39-yard line. — Tyler Dragon
Travis Kelce fumbles
Hopefully Taylor can fast-forward through that part of the highlights.
The Chiefs were on their way to securing some breathing room and had converted a fourth-and-1 the play prior when Kelce caught a 5-yard pass. Eagles safety Bradley Roby punched the football out and Nicholas Morrow recovered it.
Kansas City had gone 54 yards over 12 plays before the turnover, and still led 17-14 with the Eagles taking over at their own 10-yard line. — Chris Bumbaca
Eagles, Chiefs locked in close game heading into final quarter
The Eagles have inched closer to the Chiefs in the third quarter and are down 17-14 at the end of the period.
Kansas City has not scored after the break, but have added 41 rushing yards against a defense who usually allows 66 yards on the ground per game.
Jalen Hurts had the Eagles’ touchdown in the third quarter, a 10-yard rush on a drive that was boosted by a tush push and a 35-yard run from D’Andre Swift, who has 78 yards on the night.
In the Super Bowl, the Chiefs were down 27-21 at the end of the third quarter and scored 17 fourth quarter points to take the victory. — Victoria Hernandez
Chiefs 17, Eagles 14: Jalen Hurts gives Eagles a boost with rushing TD
Jalen Hurts breathed new life into the Eagles with a 10-yard rushing touchdown in the third quarter. According to the ESPN broadcast, the score is Hurts’ 34th career rushing touchdown, the most in the NFL since his first start in 2020.
The drive was helped by a 35-yard run from D’Andre Swift and a tush push.
The Eagles had punted on their last four drives and are now within a field goal as the Chiefs lead 17-14. — Victoria Hernandez
Eagles opt out of tush push?
The conditions for a tush push couldn’t have been better. In the heavy rain, facing a third-and-1 from their own side of the field and needing their first first down in three drives, the Eagles could have deployed their virtually unstoppable short-yardage play.
Instead, Jalen Hurts lined up in shotgun for a handoff to D’Andre Swift, who was dropped by Chiefs linebacker Willie Gay for a 3-yard loss. The Eagles punted for the third straight drive.
The Eagles effectively used the maneuver on their next drive to convert a first down. — Chris Bumbaca
Chiefs defense setting the tone
KANSAS CITY — Defense wins championships. And maybe Super Bowl rematches, too.
The Kansas City Chiefs defense seized the big stage during the first half of the Monday night showdown, leading the way to a 17-7 halftime edge.
The Chiefs, which entered Week 11 allowing an NFL-low 143 points (15.9 per game), made life so miserable for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts & Co.
Hurts passed for just 46 yards, with an interception and was sacked five times — twice apiece by Chris Jones and Trent McDuffie — and managed a mediocre 49.4 passer rating. The Eagles totaled just 78 net yards in the first two quarters (KC logged 190) and didn't convert a single third down (0 for 3).
All in all, the foundation was set for a signature performance by coordinator Steve Spagnuolo's vastly improved unit. — Jarrett Bell
Chiefs 17, Eagles 7: Kansas City takes 10-point lead into halftime
It’s been a rainy Monday night at Arrowhead Stadium, but it hasn’t exactly been showering touchdowns.
At Super Bowl 57, the Chiefs and Eagles went into the locker room at halftime with 38 points between the two of them.
But in the rematch, they’ve scored 24 points with the Chiefs up 17-7.
Harrison Butker made a 43-yard field goal to end the half and put the Chiefs up. The Chiefs regained possession with 3:49 left in the second quarter when Jalen Hurts was tackled in a near strip-sack by Trent McDuffie, his second sack of the night. Hurts fell on the ball, but Philadelphia soon faced fourth-and-15 and punted the ball away.
The Chiefs are seeing productivity from their run game with 121 rushing yards between four players against one of the stiffer run defenses in the league. Patrick Mahomes has thrown two touchdowns, one to Justin Watson and another to Travis Kelce. The star tight end didn’t get a catch until midway through the second quarter.
The Eagles, meanwhile, are moving along a bit slower on offense as Jalen Hurts’ knee seems to be less than one hundred percent. He’s only thrown for 46 yards and ran for 6 and has been sacked five times. D’Andre Swift has eight carries for 47 yards and Philadelphia’s lone score.
The teams traded interceptions in the second quarter and each had major sacks in the first two drives, which forced each offense to go three-and-out. — Victoria Hernandez
Chiefs have advantage early on the ground
The Eagles came into Week 11 with the top run defense in the NFL, allowing 66 yards per game. Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco has 66 rushing yards in the first half. Kansas City’s produced 121 yards on the ground already. — Tyler Dragon
Chiefs 14, Eagles 7: Travis Kelce gives Kansas City the lead
The Chiefs took advantage after a 21-yard punt return by Kadarius Toney.
Starting with the football on Philadelphia’s 45-yard line, Kansas City drove down the field in seven plays. On Kansas City’s seventh play, Patrick Mahomes threw a short pass to Travis Kelce for a 4-yard touchdown to give them a 14-7 lead. Kansas City’s drive included five runs and two pass attempts.
Kelce had been quiet for most of the first half until the touchdown. The Chiefs' standout tight end has two catches, 11 yards and a touchdown late in the second quarter.
The Chiefs have produced 121 total rushing yards. — Tyler Dragon
Is Jalen Hurts wearing a knee brace for 'Monday Night Football'?
Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is wearing a protective sleeve over his left knee for the game against the Chiefs.
Sideline reporter Laura Rutledge said that Hurts did not wear the knee brace during practice leading up to the Monday night matchup, but that the quarterback wore it during the game for “extra protection and precaution.”
The quarterback was injured earlier this season and wore a knee brace in the second half of the Week 7 win over the Miami Dolphins. He hasn't missed any time, but was visibly struggling in a Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
Philadelphia had their bye last week, which helped Hurts heal and allowed him to practice without a brace.
“I think time is a sign of progress,” Hurts said, per NBC Sports Philadelphia. “... The bye week came at a great time. We all took advantage of that or tried to take advantage of that time off. Everything is trending forward.” — Victoria Hernandez
Chiefs, Eagles trade interceptions
First they traded scores. Now they’re trading interceptions.
Kansas City had a chance to take the lead again and were driving in the red zone. On a first-and-10 play from the Philadelphia 14-yard line, Mahomes dropped back and underthrew the ball for an interception in the end zone to Eagles safety Kevin Byard.
Byard was the Eagles’ marquee acquisition ahead of this season’s trade deadline, as general manager Howie Roseman traded with Tennessee to bring in the two-time first-team All-Pro. — Chris Bumbaca
Travis Kelce catch-less early
KANSAS CITY — It has become rather fashionable during Kansas City Chiefs games for fans to ask: Where's Taylor Swift?
A better question during the early stages of the Monday night showdown: Where's Travis?
Star tight end Travis Kelce didn't post a catch — and wasn't even targeted — on any of Kansas City's first three possessions, which included the first series of the second quarter. This, after Kelce was targeted on just 16.9% of the routes during KC's game in Germany against Miami in Week 9.
Interestingly, Philadelphia's biggest receiving threat, A.J. Brown, also didn't see a pass come his way during the first quarter. Brown didn't post his first reception until Philadelphia's first snap of the second quarter, an 8-yard grab with 13:57 on the clock. Brown was also targeted on the pass from Jalen Hurts early in the second quarter that was intercepted by L'Jarius Sneed for the game's first turnover. — Jarrett Bell
Chiefs defense forces turnover
Jalen Hurts was picked off by L'Jarius Sneed on a pass intended for A.J. Brown on Kansas City’s 30-yard line.
Hurts had to throw the ball quickly because Kansas City sent a blitz. The pressure forced Hurts to underthrow Brown who had originally beat Sneed off the line of scrimmage.
After the interception, Brown was shown on camera a little frustrated with the turnover.
The interception was the first turnover of the contest and Sneed’s second INT of the season.
Hurts has thrown nine interceptions this year. — Tyler Dragon
Chiefs, Eagles tied up after first quarter
The Chiefs and Eagles both went three-and-out to start the game. But the offenses got things going from there.
Patrick Mahomes is 5-for-6 for 33 passing yards and had a jump-throw touchdown to Justin Watson. Isiah Pacheco and Kadarius Toney have combined for 46 rushing yards.
A Swift not named Taylor has been making an impact for the Eagles as D’Andre Swift has seven carries for 31 yards and Philadelphia’s lone score, a 4-yard touchdown. Jalen Hurts has 31 passing yards, all to DeVonta Smith.
The Eagles and Chiefs are tied at 7 at the end of the first quarter. — Victoria Hernandez
Chiefs 7, Eagles 7: Philly evens things upafter D'Andre Swift TD
If there’s one thing the Chiefs and Eagles have made clear when they play each other, it’s that no team is going to build an insurmountable lead without the other having something to say about it.
Philadelphia evened the score at 7 on their ensuing drive after the Chiefs opened the game’s scoring. D’Andre Swift – no relation to Taylor – ran for 33 yards on the possession, including a 4-yard touchdown rush. He scampered for 17 yards on the play prior to set up the score. DeVonta Smith had two catches to help move the Eagles down the field and offensive coordinator Brian Johnson called a quarterback run for Jalen Hurts near midfield that went for a first down.
Philadelphia has been cautious in running Hurts on purpose as he deals with a knee injury that has clearly affected him. — Chris Bumbaca
Chiefs 7, Eagles 0: KC strikes first with Patrick Mahomes TD throw
The Chiefs offense went three-and-out on their first series, but they had better success on the second time around.
Isiah Pacheco had a 24-yard run and Rashee Rice had a 14-yard catch and run to put Kansas City in the red zone. A few plays after Rice’s reception, Patrick Mahomes bought time in the pocket and then threw a jump pass to Justin Watson in the back of the end zone for a three-yard touchdown.
Watson’s touchdown catch capped off a 10-play, 80-yard drive for Kansas City. — Tyler Dragon
Chiefs, Eagles both open with three-and-out drives
Nine months ago, both the Chiefs and Eagles scored touchdowns on their opening drives in Super Bowl 57.
On Monday, the rematch started with a much different tone as both teams went three-and-out in their first drives.
The Eagles defense made the first statement of the night when, on the second play from scrimmage, Haason Reddick sacked Patrick Mahomes for a 9-yard loss. Then, a short pass to Jerick McKinnon wasn't enough to move the chains.
After the Chiefs punted, Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia offense didn’t fare any better on its first drive. On third-and-6 after two short runs from D'Andre Swift, Trent McDuffie sacked the Hurts and forced the Eagles to boot the ball away. — Victoria Hernandez

Travis Kelce, Jason Kelce arrive in nostalgic letterman jackets for 'Monday Night Football'
Travis and Jason Kelce’s sense of fashion
couldn’t be more different. But the two brothers both reflected on moments from the past by wearing letterman jackets ahead of their “Monday Night Football” matchup.
A man who is always on top of the trends, Travis showed up wearing a red letterman jacket representing the Dallas Texans, the American Football League team that became the Kansas City Chiefs in 1963. The tight end completed the look with a pair of classic tan Timberland boots.
Jason arrived at Arrowhead Stadium in his own signature style: sweatpants and flip-flops. Kelce’s letterman jacket also had significance as it’s from the brothers’ early days at Cleveland Heights High School. The back featured the school's fierce tiger mascot. — Victoria Hernandez

USA TODAY Sports’ staff picks for this game:
Lorenzo Reyes: Eagles 24, Chiefs 21 — This will be fascinating. The environment in Arrowhead will be electric and these are two legitimate Super Bowl contenders. I think the Eagles, though — right now — are more offensively complete. Kansas City’s defense might be the most underrated in the league, but I like Philly to exact a little revenge here in this rematch of Super Bowl 57.
Tyler Dragon: Chiefs 24, Eagles 23 — The main event is fittingly the final game of Week 11. This Super Bowl 57 rematch is easily the game of the week. Both teams had a Week 10 bye. The Eagles are the more complete team and can win in a variety of ways. But the Chiefs are at home, Patrick Mahomes is the best player on the field, the Chiefs have a top-five defense and at some point (you’d think) Kansas City’s wide receivers are going to step up.
Safid Deen: Chiefs 27, Eagles 23 — Still the two best teams in the NFL, it’s truly hard to decipher which team has the edge going into this Super Bowl rematch. The Eagles are on a roll on both sides of the football with the best record, while the Chiefs may have their best defense since Patrick Mahomes became their starter. To be the best, you have to beat the best. And I’m going to roll with the defending champs at home in this one. Mahomes will find a way to outplay Jalen Hurts in crunch time to secure the win.
Victoria Hernandez: Eagles 27, Chiefs 24 — Get your popcorn ready. In a rematch of last year’s Super Bowl, both teams will be fresh off their bye and Kansas City will have recovered from their jet lag — except for maybe Travis Kelce who took an extra international trip to support boo Taylor Swift. But even if the Eagles are still a bit banged up, they will get revenge against a Chiefs offense that’s struggled to find quite the same prowess this season.
Jordan Mendoza: Chiefs 34, Eagles 30 — These two teams gave us one of the highest-scoring Super Bowls the last time they faced off. With both teams eager to prove themselves as the top Super Bowl favorite, expect the offenses to once again go crazy in the rematch. You could go either way, but the crowd at Arrowhead Stadium will make the difference in this one. Karma might be the guy on the Chiefs leading his team to a win.
What's at stake on Monday night?
This game has more immediate playoff implications for the Chiefs (7-2), who would surrender the No. 1 overall spot in the AFC standings to the Baltimore Ravens (8-3) with a loss. Kansas City currently has the inside edge for home-field advantage and potentially hosting a sixth consecutive conference championship game.
Win or lose, the Eagles (8-1) will retain the top spot in the NFC as their bid to secure the home field for the second straight season continues. A loss would tie Philadelphia with the Detroit Lions (8-2), but Detroit's inferior record in conference games would keep them in the No. 2 slot. Still, with the Bills, 49ers, hard-charging Cowboys and Seahawks set to follow on the schedule, Philly can hardly afford a stumble. — Nate Davis
Ninth-ever Super Bowl rematch
Tonight’s game will be the ninth rematch of a Super Bowl to occur in the subsequent season. The teams that won the Super Bowl are 6-2 in Round 2, including four victories in a row. Most recently, the New England Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons in the 2017 season following their historic overtime comeback from a 28-3 deficit in Super Bowl 51. In the past six rematches, six teams went on to advance to that season’s Super Bowl, including the 2017 Patriots … who lost to Jason Kelce’s Eagles. — Nate Davis
Eagles vs. Chiefs inactives: Dallas Goedert is out
Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert suffered a forearm injury during Philadelphia's win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, and will miss Monday night's Super Bowl 57 rematch. In his absence, the Eagles will count on a committee of tight ends to help make up for the loss of Goedert's production. Jack Stoll, Albert Okwuegbunam and Grant Calcaterra will be called on to fill Goedert's shoes. Recently signed wide receiver Julio Jones also could play a larger role in the Eagles offense.
Eagles' inactive players:
QB Tanner McKee (third QB)
RB Rashaad Penny
DT Moro Ojomo
OG Sua Opeta
TE Dallas Goedert
DE Derek Barnett
Chiefs' inactive players:
WR Richie James
DE BJ Thompson
OL Mike Caliendo
DT Neil Farrell
DE Malik Herring
Kelce Bowl 4
Monday night’s game will be Eagles center Jason Kelce’s fifth attempt to beat the Chiefs, the five-time All-Pro is currently 0-4 against the team coached by Andy Reid – the man who drafted Kelce in Philadelphia in 2011. Of course, Kelce also badly wants to beat his younger brother Travis, the reigning champs' star tight end. Travis Kelce has never known defeat against his big bro in the NFL but was inactive for the 2013 matchup, which occurred during his rookie season. — Nate Davis

— Philadelphia Eagles (@Eagles) November 20, 2023
Andy Reid is winningest coach for each franchise
Reid is the only coach in NFL history to hold regular-season wins record for two teams (Eagles and Chiefs). Reid won 130 games in 14 seasons in Philadelphia. He’s currently won 124 games as the Chiefs head coach. — Tyler Dragon
Another Andy Reid record?
With a win Monday night, Andy Reid will break a tie with Hank Stram by winning his 125th regular-season game with the Kansas City Chiefs – which would be the most in franchise history. When postseason is factored in, Reid is the king of K.C. HCs, his overall record 136-54, including titles in 2019 and 2022. Of course, Reid is also the winningest coach in Eagles history, 140-102-1, including a loss in Super Bowl 39.
Reid’s 4-0 record against Philadelphia, including February’s 38-35 win in Super Bowl 57, has come be a collective score of 133-101. Reid is the only coach in NFL history to notch the most wins for two separate franchises and the lone one to win at least 100 games for multiple clubs. He’s also one of seven NFL coaches to take two organizations to Super Sunday. — Nate Davis
Taylor Swift's Chiefs allegiance leaves Eagles fans feeling 'betrayed'
For Taylor Swift, these days, "Karma" is "the guy on the (Kansas City) Chiefs."
That makes some Philadelphia Eagles fans wish for a dose of lower-case, not-the-song-title karma Monday night when the Chiefs host the Eagles in a rematch of Super Bowl 57. It’s also a test of the pop star’s allegiances – and people, especially Eagles fans, are paying attention. — Chris Bumbaca
NFL fans are rooting for Taylor and Travis, but mostly they're rooting for football
While everyone agrees it’s great that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are dating, both Chiefs and Eagles fans had mixed reactions regarding the hype around the relationship as they tailgated ahead of "Monday Night Football."
Swift was unable to attend the game on Monday because of a makeup show in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Kelce attended one of Swift's concerts in Buenos Aires, Argentina, this month. — Bryan West
Patrick Mahomes, Jalen Hurts both franchise QBs and winners
Patrick Mahomes has the highest quarterback winning percentage in the NFL since 1970 (for a quarterback with a minimum of 25 starts). The Chiefs' star quarterback has a 71-18 career record, resulting in a .798 winning percentage.
Jalen Hurts has the fifth highest winning percentage. The Eagles' star quarterback has a 31-12 career record. His winning percentage is .721.
The Chiefs (7-2) and Eagles (8-1) are both on top of their respective conferences. Superb quarterback play is a major reason why. — Tyler Dragon
