While the NFC East rivals are well acquainted, this will be their first September meeting since 2021 and their first Week 1 encounter since 2000.
The last time they met in the opening week of the season, the Eagles ran out as 41-14 winners.
Dallas leads the head-to-head series overall, with a 74-58 record against Philadelphia, but it’s Hurts and the Eagles who dominated in 2024.
En-route to the Super Bowl, Philly won both games against Dallas last season by a combined 75-13 margin.
With news of the season opener made official by the NFL, fans were quick to share their predictions for the game.
“This is about to be a bloodbath,” one person wrote, responding to the announcement.
“Cowboys 0-1 on May 12th,” another joked, referencing the date of the reveal.
“Eagles by 10000,” a third said.
