The replay showed Epps’ helmet hitting Burks directly in the facemask. He was flagged for unnecessary roughness on the play. Burks eventually got up and walked to the sideline under his own power. He was taken back to the locker room for further evaluation.
It was Burks’ first career touchdown.
The touchdown helped tie the game 7-7.

Philadelphia can clinch a playoff berth if they beat Tennessee, the Washington Commanders lose to the New York Giants, the San Francisco 49ers lose or tie to the Miami Dolphins and the Seattle Seahawks lose or tie to the Los Angeles Rams (just as long the 49ers and Seahawks don’t both tie). The Eagles could also clinch with a win, a Commanders tie, 49ers loss and Seahawks loss.
