The Philadelphia Eagles survived a close one on Sunday, coming back from 19 down to beat the Los Angeles Rams in a game fans suggested was rigged.

The Super Bowl champions left it late, needing to block a field goal attempt at the death to keep their streak alive and create one of the most unbelievable moments of the new season, though you wouldn’t know it looking at Jalen Hurts, who was as cool as a cucumber while the Linc exploded around him.

The team has since announced that it is waiving four-year offensive lineman Kenyon Green and has claimed former New York Giants wide receiver Xavier Gipson off waivers.

“The Eagles claimed wide receiver Xavier Gipson, who was waived by the New York Giants on September 20. Gipson started the season with the Jets but was waived after Week 1,” the team announced via their official website on Monday.

“In a corresponding move, the Eagles waived offensive lineman Kenyon Green.”

Green, a first-round pick by the Houston Texans in 2022, was on the practice squad and hasn’t appeared in the Eagles’ first three games of the season.

The former Texas A&M star, the 15th overall pick three years ago, hasn’t given a great account of himself since his All-American exploits in college. He was rated as the worst guard in the NFL by Pro Football Focus in 2022, earning a 37.7 grade.

Green missed all of 2023 with a shoulder injury, returning last season to the tune of a 38.6 grade.

The Eagles acquired him in a trade in March this year, getting him plus a 2026 fifth-round pick in exchange for C.J. Gardner-Johnson and a 2026 sixth-round pick.

The decision comes with the NFC East franchise still on cloud nine following their epic comeback win in which the Tush Push drew criticism yet again.

Of course, they will hardly care and continue to use it as long as it remains a legal play.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
