PHILADELPHIA, PA — The Philadelphia Eagles will travel to London for the third overseas game in franchise history this year, the team announced in a teaser of their 2026 schedule ahead of the full reveal later Thursday night.
That game will be held on week 5, on Sunday, Oct. 11, at 9:30 a.m. eastern time. They'll face the Jacksonville Jaguars, whom they played in London back in 2018.
That 2018 game was at Wembley Stadium. This year's match up will be at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, home of the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club.
The Birds will also be one of the select teams participating in the Thanksgiving Day games, where they'll battle against the division rival Dallas Cowboys.
That week 12 game will be in Dallas at 4:30 p.m. It will mark the 59th time in history the Cowboys have played on Thanksgiving Day.
Five more games, of course, will be played against their division rivals. A home game against Dallas, two games against the New York Giants, and two games against the Washington 76ers- no, the Washington Commanders.
That covers 7 games, leaving 10 games as somewhat of a mystery. But other "unofficial" leaks have come out in recent days from around the league, with several of them connected to the Birds.
Bleeding Green Nation says that the Eagles will host Washington in week one, on Sept. 13. They'll battle the Bears in Chicago for Monday Night Football in week three, on Sept. 28. Week 15 will be matchup with the defending Super Bowl champion Seahawks in Seattle, while Week 16 will be a Thursday Night Football matchup with the Houston Texans.
The Birds have made five consecutive postseasons along with three Super Bowl appearances in the last nine years. Expectations will remain high in 2026 a year after a disappointing early round exit.
The NFL will officially announce their entire schedule for the 2026 season at 8 p.m. Thursday.
