VIDEO: Eagles Strip Sack of Aaron Rodgers Leads to Jordan Howard TD Run
By Scott Rogust
The Philadelphia Eagles have completely flipped the scripts on Thursday night. Once trailing to the Green Bay Packers, the Eagles found themselves on top 14-13. With Green Bay threatening, Eagles defensive end Derek Barnett ran behind quarterback Aaron Rodgers and swiped the ball out of his hands for a fumble, officially putting Philadelphia in scoring territory following a heads-up recovery.
