Philadelphia EaglesThe Philadelphia Eagles are a professional American football team based in Philadelphia. The Eagles compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the National Football Conference (NFC) East division. The team plays its home games at Lincoln Financial Field in the South Philadelphia Sports Complex. The franchise was established in 1933 as a replacement for the bankrupt Frankford Yellow Jackets when a group led by Bert Bell secured the rights to an NFL franchise in Philadelphia. Since their formation, the Eagles have appeared in the playoffs 31 times, won 16 division titles (including 13 in the NFC East), appeared in four pre-merger NFL Championship Games, winning three of them (1948, 1949, and 1960), and appeared in five Super Bowls, winning Super Bowls LII and LIX. The Philadelphia Eagles rank among the best teams in the NFL for attendance and have sold out every home game continuously since the 1999 season. The Eagles are owned by Jeffrey Lurie, who bought the team in 1994 for $185 million. In December 2024, the Eagles became one of the first teams in the NFL to sell an ownership stake to outside investors. The deal sold 8% of the franchise at a valuation of $8.3 billion.

2023 Philadelphia Eagles seasonThe 2023 season was the Philadelphia Eagles' 91st season in the National Football League (NFL), their 30th under the ownership of Jeffrey Lurie and their third under head coach Nick Sirianni. The Eagles entered the season as defending NFC champions. The Eagles failed to equal or improve on their 14–3 record from the previous year due to their loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Despite this, the Eagles clinched their third consecutive playoff berth and sixth in seven years the same week, after the Green Bay Packers lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Atlanta Falcons losing to the Carolina Panthers, and the San Francisco 49ers defeating the Arizona Cardinals. Despite starting with a 10–1 record for the second consecutive season, the Eagles lost five of their last six games. In Week 17, after a devastating home loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Eagles lost control of their own destiny for the NFC East division title. In Week 18, after the Cowboys' victory against the Commanders and their own loss to the Giants, the Eagles were locked into the #5 seed. Even in victory, the Eagles had problems with a poor defense the entire season, which was ranked 26th out of 32; 8 of their 11 victories fell within one score, while they conversely suffered blowout losses to the playoff-bound 49ers and Cowboys, as well as the Giants by 3 scores. In fact, the Eagles defense allowed the third-most points of any team in the league, with over 428. The Eagles' late-season woes continued into the playoffs, in which they were eliminated in the Wild Card round by the NFC South champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a 32–9 loss. This late-season collapse is considered by many to be one of the most shocking in NFL history. The Eagles promptly fired offensive coordinator Brian Johnson and defensive coordinators Sean Desai and Matt Patricia within a week of their playoff exit. In the subsequent offseason, on March 4, 2024, center Jason Kelce retired after spending his entire 13-year career with the Eagles. On March 10, defensive tackle Fletcher Cox would also retire after spending 12 seasons with the team. Despite the disappointing season, highlights included a 21-17 primetime win over the defending and eventual repeat Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 11. This was the Eagles' first win against the Chiefs since 2009, and their first-ever win against former longtime head coach Andy Reid. This season would mark the first season since 2010 that the Eagles wore Kelly green uniforms and the first time since 1995 that they would be featured multiple times in a season. The Philadelphia Eagles drew an average home attendance of 69,878 in 8 home games in the 2023 NFL season.

2024 Philadelphia Eagles seasonThe 2024 season was the Philadelphia Eagles' 92nd in the National Football League (NFL) and their fourth under head coach Nick Sirianni. The Eagles won their second Super Bowl title and first since 2017, defeating the two-time defending champion Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. With this victory, the Eagles became the only franchise in NFL history to win multiple Super Bowls against defending Super Bowl champions, having previously done so seven years earlier. Philadelphia also became the only NFL franchise to avenge a Super Bowl loss against multiple franchises, defeating the Patriots and Chiefs in Super Bowls LII and LIX after losing to them in XXXIX and LVII respectively. In the offseason, two longtime Eagles players, center Jason Kelce and defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, announced their retirements. This season was highlighted by the spectacular play of the newly acquired Saquon Barkley, who became the ninth running back in NFL history to reach 2,000 yards. Despite a turnover-plagued 2–2 start which included a stunning home loss to the Atlanta Falcons and a 33–16 drubbing at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Eagles rebounded to win 16 of their final 17 games. With their Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers, along with losses by the Atlanta Falcons and Arizona Cardinals that same day, the Eagles clinched a playoff berth for the fourth straight year and seventh time in the last 8 seasons. With a Week 15 win over their instate rival Pittsburgh Steelers, the Eagles also improved on their 11–6 record from the previous season and won ten consecutive games for the first time in franchise history. In Week 17, the Eagles clinched the NFC East and with that win, swept the Dallas Cowboys for the first time since 2011. With their Week 18 win over the New York Giants, the Eagles finished 14–3 for the second time in three seasons. The Eagles defeated the Green Bay Packers 22–10 in the Wild Card Round and the Los Angeles Rams 28–22 in the Divisional Round. In the NFC Championship Game, the Eagles defeated their division rival Washington Commanders 55–23 to advance to Super Bowl LIX. That victory also gave the Eagles an all-time winning record for the first time in franchise history. The Eagles then faced the Chiefs in a rematch of Super Bowl LVII from two years earlier and defeated the two-time defending champions 40–22, preventing Kansas City from winning three straight Super Bowl championships. The Eagles finished with 18 total wins, tying an NFL record for most total wins in a season along with the 1984 San Francisco 49ers, 1985 Chicago Bears, and 2007 New England Patriots. The Eagles also set an NFL record for most points scored in one postseason, at 145. In December 2024, Philadelphia Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie sold an 8% minority stake in the team to two family investment groups, based on a valuation of $8.3 billion.
2025 Philadelphia Eagles seasonThe 2025 season will be the Philadelphia Eagles' 93rd in the National Football League (NFL) and their fifth under head coach Nick Sirianni. The Eagles will enter the season as the defending Super Bowl champions. This will be their first season since 2009 without Brandon Graham on the opening day roster, as he announced his retirement on March 18.
