Eagles prepare for preseason opener against Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles face the Baltimore Ravens in their 2026 preseason opener at M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday night. This game marks a shift from training camp to live competition, as the Eagles aim to evaluate individual performances amid roster cuts. Key storylines include the playing time for starters, particularly Jalen Hurts, and the competition between quarterbacks Andy Dalton and Tanner McKee for backup roles. The Eagles are also assessing their wide receiver depth and reserve offensive linemen, along with the performance of revamped special-teams units. The outcome is less significant than player evaluations as the Eagles look to reduce their roster to 53 by August 30.
