Jan 12, 2025, 09:48 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jahan Dotson scored his first touchdown as an Eagle on an 11-yard pass from quarterback Jalen Hurts, giving the team an early 7-0 lead over the Green Bay Packers at Lincoln Financial Field. The touchdown, which came just 79 seconds into the playoff game, followed a fumble forced by Oren Burks and recovered by Jeremiah Trotter Jr. Hurts had 6.75 seconds in the pocket—the third-longest time to throw on a touchdown pass from the pocket this season, according to Next Gen Stats—before finding Dotson, who wears jersey number 83, in the back of the end zone. The strong start energized the home crowd as the Eagles capitalized on the Packers' mistake.
