Talk about redemption. On the very first drive of the game, Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert fumbled the ball following a reception, leading to the Dallas Cowboys' early offensive onslaught. Goedert would gain his measure of payback on Philadelphia's third drive of the game. With quarterback Carson Wentz and running back Jordan Howard moving the ball downfield, the drive culminated in Wentz dropping a dime to Goedert, who leaped over Cowboys linebacker Leighton Vander Esch in the end zone for the touchdown.

As a result of Goedert's impressive leaping catch, the Eagles deficit was cut to 14-7.
