    play

    Week 11 of the 2024 NFL season kicks off with the Philadelphia Eagles (7-2) hosting the Washington Commanders (7-3).

    The stage is set for an exciting NFC East battle between two sides vying for first place in the division.

    Philadelphia takes first place in this showdown at Lincoln Financial Field on Thursday evening. The Eagles are coming off an impressive 34-6 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. Philadelphia has won five straight games behind great play from quarterback Jalen Hurts and the rest of the Eagle’s offense.

    Meanwhile, the Commanders are off to a great 7-2 start, but enter Week 11 on the back of a disappointing 28-27 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Washington may be the biggest surprise of the 2024 NFL season, and No. 2 overall pick Jayden Daniels has been excellent through the first half of his rookie campaign.

    A play-off atmosphere can be expected in the City of Brotherly Love tonight. USA Today will provide live updates leading up to “Thursday Night Football” and throughout the game.

    A stellar season for the star running back continues as Barkley surpasses the 1,000 rushing yards mark on an 8-yard carry to start the drive. He fell short in 2023 after putting up 1,312 yards in 2022. Barkley has dealt with many injuries and inept fouls during his career, but has returned to stardom in Philadelphia.

    Barkley’s next challenge is to get back to 2,000 scrimmage yards, something he hasn’t done since his rookie year in 2018. With seven games to go, there is a real chance that he can get there again.

    Washington got a break after Jake Elliott’s miss, but couldn’t do anything with his luck. A quick three-and-out only took about a minute off the clock before Jalen Hurts and the Eagles could get back to work.

    Philly’s opening drive got off to a promising start, with the big play being an AJ Brown catch-and-run of 32 yards. The drive quickly came to a halt after a penalty, leaving the Eagles to settle for three. However, Jake Elliott pushed his kick wide left during the 44-yard attempt. No goal for five minutes.

    We’re just over a minute into tonight’s festivities and we have our first injury of the night: Eagles left guard Landon Dickerson. He was rolled up and limped off the field after a Saquon Barkley run. Tyler Steen will replace him for the time being.

    Al Michaels (play-by-play) and Kirk Herbstreit (analyst) will be in the broadcast booth for Prime Video, while Kaylee Hartung (sideline) and Terry McAulay (rules analyst) will provide additional coverage.

    The Prime Video pregame, halftime and postgame shows feature Charissa Thompson as host, as well as former NFL players Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tony Gonzalez, Richard Sherman and Andrew Whitworth as analysts.

    Taylor Rooks is the lead reporter for Prime Video’s “Thursday Night Football” coverage. Albert Breer provides reports and analyses.

    Andrew Marchand, formerly of the New York Post, initially reported that Michaels’ contract would be for three years and “north of $30 million,” but that number may have increased. About a week after that initial report, in March 2022, Marchand said the Amazon deal would happen “in the Joe Buck neighborhood.” Buck signed a five-year, $75 million ($15 million per year) deal with ESPN earlier that same month.
