Neither team scored a touchdown in the first three quarters of Monday Night Football.

The Eagles became the first to reach the end zone on a 36-yard throw by Jalen Hurts to DeVonta Smith. Smith outjumped safety Evan Williams on a pass slightly underthrown.

The Eagles lead the Packers 10-0.

Smith's touchdown was set up on the previous play, a third-and-7 from the Eagles 23. Hurts threw a short pass to Saquon Barkley, who avoided the attempted tackle of Carrington Valentine before the first-down marker. Barkley ended up going 41 yards before Xavier McKinney saved the touchdown for a play.

The Eagles scored the first points on a 39-yard field goal by Jake Elliott with 8:58 remaining in the third quarter.

Hurts is now 14-of-21 for 167 yards and a touchdown.

Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson appeared in a lot of pain as he left the field in the second quarter on Monday night.

Packers safety Evan Williams accidentally landed on Johnson's left ankle as he pursued running back Saquon Barkley, who ran for 7 yards. Williams' helmet also slammed into Johnson's knee.

Johnson limped off the field with 5:39 left in the half. He required assistance as he hobbled to the tunnel entrance, where he rode a cart to the X-ray room.

The Eagles list Johnson as questionable to return with an ankle injury, but he has returned to the field wearing his helmet for the second half.

Fred Johnson has replaced him.

Since 2016, the Eagles are 91-39-1 with Johnson and 12-23 without him.
