Eagles unofficial depth chart ahead of playoff matchup vs. Giants
The New York Giants made the short trip down the New Jersey Turnpike to face the Philadelphia Eagles in the Divisional Round of the 2022 Playoffs.
Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET on Saturday, Jan. 21 on FOX at Lincoln Financial Field.
There’s an added intrigue to the matchup after the visiting Giants spent the morning without water after a pipe burst in the center city hotel.
Saturday marks the third meeting of the 2022 season between the Eagles and the Giants, with Philadelphia winning the first two games. The two teams have previously met three times in a single season on four occasions – 2008, 2006, 2000, and 1981.
The Giants have never lost three times to the Eagles in a single season.
With the matchup a little over six hours away, here’s an updated depth chart for Philadelphia with Lane Johnson back in the lineup.
