Jake Elliott's last-second heroics secured a 16-13 victory for the Philadelphia Eagles over the Baltimore Ravens in a preseason NFL matchup. Elliott, given a second chance after a Baltimore fumble, made a 49-yard field goal as time expired to seal the win.
Earlier in the game, Elliott had hit the right upright on a 50-yard attempt but capitalized on the opportunity presented by a turnover to secure the victory. The game saw quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Jalen Hurts held out, with backup QBs Josh Johnson and Kenny Pickett struggling to find the end zone.
Baltimore's Justin Tucker and the Eagles traded field goals before a late touchdown by the Eagles tied the game at 13 apiece. With just seconds left on the clock, Elliott's decisive field goal was the difference-maker, giving Philadelphia the win.
The nail-biting finish showcased the resilience of both teams as they gear up for the upcoming NFL season, with the Eagles walking away victorious in this preseason showdown.
