The bad news is kicker Jake Elliott’s out the rest of the game with a head injury.
The good news is the Eagles offense woke up in time for it to matter.
The Eagles opened the second half with a sharp touchdown drive after a long lull in the first half, and then added a two-point conversion out of necessity for a 15-9 lead.
Eagles rookie Corey Clement scored the touchdown, and then took a lateral from Carson Wentz for the conversion., giving them a point beyond what they’d have had otherwise. It’s not what they’d draw up, but on a night when the Cowboys are getting nothing but field field goals, it might hold up.
The Eagles let linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill kick off, but they’re not ready to trust him for anything involving points, at least not yet.
