The defending Super Bowl-champion Eagles begin the 2025 season with a home match against the NFC East rival Cowboys.

Philadelphia looks to build off the momentum of its tremendous Super Bowl win over the Chiefs, while Dallas just wants to get the season off on the right foot for new head coach Brian Schottenheimer after a horrific 2024 season.

The Eagles will once again be led by a ridiculous trio of offensive players, including quarterback Jalen Hurts, running back Saquon Barkley and receiver A.J. Brown.

The Cowboys kept a lot of their same stars, too, with Dak Prescott under center and CeeDee Lamb at receiver, but also added George Pickens at receiver and Javonte Williams at running back. However, the biggest name that won't be in this game is edge rusher Micah Parsons, whom Dallas traded to the Packers ahead of the season opener.

Dallas still holds a 74-58 all-time series lead over Philadelphia, but the Eagles have won five out of the last seven contests, including both games in 2024.

Here is everything you need to know about the Eagles vs. Cowboys, including TV and streaming options for the preseason game.
