The Monday Night Football schedule continues with Week 2 of the 2024 NFL season, featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons. The game will be broadcast and streamed on ESPN, with live stream on ESPN+, and Jason Kelce will make a guest appearance in the TV booth.
The Eagles will be without Pro Bowl receiver AJ Brown, who pulled a hamstring during practice on Friday and was out on Sunday. However, they have plenty of offensive playmakers in quarterback Jalen Hurts, receiver DeVonta Smith and running back Saquon Barkley, who is making his home debut for the Eagles.
Eagles vs. Falcons is at 8:15 p.m. at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia. In Week 2, the Eagles will face quarterback Kirk Cousins for the third consecutive time in prime time. This time, however, Cousins leads the Falcons after signing as a free agent after six seasons with the Minnesota Vikings.
The Eagles have outplayed Cousins of late, winning 34-28 in Week 2 on Thursday night last year despite four passing touchdowns from Cousins, and winning 24-7 in Week 2 of 2022 on Monday night. But now he has to hand the ball off to Bijan Robinson.
