PHILADELPHPIA (AP) — Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts started Sunday against the Giants after he missed the past two games with a sprained right shoulder. The Eagles need to beat the Giants to earn the No. 1 seed in the NFC and home-field advantage in the conference playoffs. The Eagles started 13-1 with Hurts. They lost two straight games to Dallas and New Orleans behind QB Gardner Minshew. Hurts was injured three weeks ago on a hard tackle in a win against the Chicago Bears.
