What Time is the Eagles Game?
The Philadelphia Eagles is a professional football team located in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The team competes in the National Football League (NFL) as a member of the NFC East Division. The team plays its games at Lincoln Financial Field in South Philadelphia. If you’re an Eagles fan, or a fan of the NFL in general, you may be wondering what time the Eagles game starts.
Eagles Home Games
Most Eagles home games take place on Sunday afternoons at 1:00 p.m. ET, but this does vary on occasion. When the Eagles play away games, the kickoff time is usually 1:00 p.m. ET as well, but it can also occasionally differ depending on the stadium or the region of the country they’re playing in.
For certain primetime games, the Eagles might have their kickoff time pushed back to 8:15 p.m. ET, or to other primetime kickoff slots. ESPN’s Monday Night Football games always begin at 8:15 p.m. ET, while NBC’s Sunday Night Football, Fox’s Thursday Night Football and CBS’s Thursday Night Football games will kick off at 8:20 p.m. ET.
Eagles Preseason Games
The NFL preseason schedule generally runs from August to early September, giving teams an opportunity to prepare for the upcoming season. Preseason games for the Eagles start at different kickoff times depending on which team the Eagles are playing and which week of the preseason it is. Terms like “Ford Preseason Classic” are usually references to kickoffs earlier than the normal 1:00 p.m. ET.
In most cases, the Eagles will kickoff their preseason games around 7:00 p.m. ET, but this can also differ depending on the location of the game, the other team involved and other considerations.
