Philadelphia Eagles fans, mark your calendars! While the official 2026 NFL schedule drops Thursday evening, the Eagles' full 17-game slate has already leaked—and it's a doozy. Let's dive into the highlights, key matchups, and what this means for the defending NFC champions.
Season Opener: Redemption at Home
The Eagles kick off the season with a bang, hosting the Washington Commanders on September 13 at 4:25 PM. After a heated rivalry last year, Philly will look to set the tone early in front of the home crowd.
London Calling
Week 5 takes the Eagles across the pond for a 9:30 AM showdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 11. It's an early wake-up call for fans, but a prime opportunity for the Birds to shine on an international stage.
Prime-Time Showdowns
Philly gets plenty of national spotlight in 2026. Mark your calendars for:
- Week 3: Monday Night Football at the Chicago Bears (September 28)
- Week 7: Monday Night Football vs. the Dallas Cowboys (October 26)
- Week 8: Sunday Night Football at the Washington Commanders (November 1)
- Week 12: Thanksgiving Day at the Dallas Cowboys (November 26, 4:30 PM)
- Week 16: Thursday Night Football vs. the Houston Texans (December 24)
- Week 17: Sunday Night Football at the San Francisco 49ers (January 3)
That's six primetime games, including a Christmas Eve showdown and a Thanksgiving visit to Jerry World. The Eagles are built for the big stage, and the schedule reflects it.
Strength of Schedule
Based on 2026 projected win totals, the Eagles have the seventh-easiest schedule in the NFL. That's a major advantage as they aim for another deep playoff run. Key divisional battles with the Cowboys, Giants, and Commanders will always be tough, but the rotation of the NFC West and AFC South offers some favorable matchups.
