The Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens each averaged less than 3.5 yards per offensive play — a preseason staple. And if not for a last-second Emory Jones fumble, they would have tied.
Eagles rookie running back Will Shipley displayed his versatility with 23 rushing yards and a seven-yard touchdown reception, while Ravens rookie cornerback Nate Wiggins put on a pass-breakup show before exiting with a shoulder injury.
It was always going to come down to kickers Jake Elliott and Justin Tucker, though, and Elliott's second crack at a game-winner sailed through the uprights to seal Philadelphia's 16-13 win in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL preseason.

PLAYER OF THE GAME
What a showing it was for Ravens first-round pick Nate Wiggins, who played an impressive 43 snaps before departing with a shoulder injury. He faced six targets on the night and forced an astonishing four incompletions — more than the entire Eagles defense.
The injury will be the primary concern for the team as it looks to solidify the secondary depth chart heading into the regular season.
