There are plenty of Eagles involved in Tuesday’s flag football game.
The Eagles had more than a few Pro Bowlers last season that ended in a Super Bowl victory, but weren’t able to participate given their preparation for the big game. This year, however, four were able to make their way to San Francisco to take part in the flag football game.
The game will get underway on Tuesday, February 3 at 8:00 PM ET on ESPN, Disney XD, ESPN Deportes, the ESPN App and on mobile with NFL+.
Jalen Hurts was a late addition, taking Matthew Stafford’s spot, with the Eagles QB not initially named as a starter or backup. As it happens, though, players drop out due to injuries or various personal reasons, and Hurts was the next man up. He’s been featured by the NFL in the days leading up to the big competition, and will earn his third Pro Bowl appearance. Hurts is a flag football ambassador so it’s not surprising that given his health and love of football, that he’d make himself available for the event.
Cooper DeJean, Zack Baun, and Cam Jurgens are also in town for the games, and should all be a big help for Jerry Rice’s NFC team on Tuesday night. The NFC’s coaching staff also includes DeSean Jackson, with Michael Vick and Torrey Smith participating as coaches for the AFC side of things.
Jason Kelce will be another familiar face, and he’ll be calling the game for the second year in a row, alongside his ESPN colleagues.
The Eagles will be well-represented at the 2026 Pro Bowl Games, and it’ll be an opportunity to watch some of the NFL’s best compete in a meaningless, but good-spirited, game.
