PHILADELPHIA — The Philadelphia Eagles will begin their quest to defend their division and conference titles and return to the Super Bowl on Sunday with a season-opening trip to Foxboro, Mass. to take on the New England Patriots.
With superstar quarterback Jalen Hurts, a top-flight group of receivers, a revamped group of running backs and a younger but relatively unproven defense, the expectations are running high among the Birds and their fans.
