"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."
"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."
The Eagles blocked two field goals in a single game for the first time since Sept. 21, 1975. Defensive tackle Jordan Davis batted a 44-yard Joshua Karty attempt with three seconds remaining, scooped the ball up and rumbled 61 yards for a walk-off touchdown, producing a 33-26 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. The win capped a comeback from a 26-7 deficit early in the third quarter. Fans and teammates celebrated wildly despite the play occurring in a "No mas" situation where advancing the ball is discouraged. Davis reached 18.59 mph on the return, the fastest speed by a player over 330 pounds since 2017 per NextGen Stats.
