Jordan Davis' FG block, score caps off Eagles' win over Rams - ESPN

PHILADELPHIA — The last time the Philadelphia Eagles blocked two field goals in a single game was Sept. 21, 1975, against the New York Giants.

Fifty years to the day, history repeated, though this time it generated a walk-off winner that delivered a stunning 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams.

Defensive tackle Jordan Davis batted a 44-yard Joshua Karty attempt with three seconds remaining, scooped it up and rumbled 61 yards for the touchdown to deliver one of the more frenzied endings to a game in Lincoln Financial Field history. It completed a massive comeback for the Eagles, who trailed 26-7 early in the third quarter.

«I think the only walk-off win I've ever been a part of was the Buffalo game in '23 and today, and it's a great feeling,» coach Nick Sirianni said. «It's an emotional game.»

That emotion spilled over into the back of the end zone. Fans leaned over the wall to lovingly slap Davis on the helmet and teammates swarmed from every direction to be part of the celebration.

Technically, it was a «No mas» situation for the Eagles — players aren't supposed to advance the ball in that situation, so as not to risk giving the ball back to the opponent — but no one was complaining. Davis, listed at 6-foot-6 and 336 pounds, reached 18.59 miles per hour on the return, the fastest speed by a player over 330 pounds since at least 2017, according to NextGen Stats.

«Maybe he has a future at running back,» Saquon Barkley said after learning how fast Davis ran.

«I was juiced,» safety Reed Blankenship added. «I didn't know he was going to take it all the way back. But he's got wheels. He lost what, 30-something pounds. He can move.»

Davis made getting in better shape a priority dating back to around the middle of last season.
