NFL Shocker: Eagles Get Flexed Out of Sunday Night Football... Again!

The Philadelphia Eagles will no longer be playing under the bright lights of Sunday Night Football in Week 9, as the NFL has announced that their matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars has been flexed out of the primetime slot.

In a move that is sure to disappoint Eagles fans, the NFL has decided to replace the Jaguars-Eagles game with the Indianapolis Colts-Minnesota Vikings matchup, which was initially scheduled for a 1:00 PM kickoff.

This is the second time this season that the Eagles have been flexed out of Sunday Night Football, and it's likely that the team's fans will be disappointed by the news. The Eagles had been looking forward to a national television audience for their Week 9 game, but now they will be playing in the late afternoon instead.

The Colts-Vikings game, on the other hand, has been gaining some attention in recent weeks, and the NFL has decided to give it the primetime treatment. The Colts have been one of the surprises of the season so far, and the Vikings have been playing some competitive football as well.

The Eagles-Jaguars game will now kick off at 4:05 PM, which is still a relatively late start time, but it's not quite the same as playing in the primetime slot. The team will have to adjust to the new kickoff time, and they will be looking to bounce back from a tough stretch of games in recent weeks.

The NFL's decision to flex the Eagles-Jaguars game out of Sunday Night Football is likely due to a combination of factors, including the team's recent performance and the lack of national attention for the matchup. However, the Eagles are still a talented team with a loyal fan base, and they will be looking to make some noise in the second half of the season.

For now, though, the Eagles will have to settle for a late afternoon kickoff in Week 9. The team will be looking to make the most of the situation, and they will be hoping to come away with a win against the Jaguars.
