Philadelphia Eagles vs. New York Giants Match Player Stats for Oct. 26, 2025
By Reid Callahan · · 11 min read

Overview
These player stats come from the New York Giants’ visit to the Philadelphia Eagles on Oct. 26, 2025, at Lincoln Financial Field, a game Philadelphia won 38-20 according to the ESPN final score page. If you searched for this matchup without a date, this is the second of the teams’ two completed 2025 meetings, and it is the one this article covers.
The date matters more than usual here. The same two teams played 17 days earlier, on Oct. 9, 2025, and that game produced the opposite result: a 34-17 Giants win, per the ESPN box score for that game. A third listing also appears in search results, a scheduled Eagles-Giants game on Nov. 8, 2026 at Lincoln Financial Field, per Sofascore. That 2026 game has not been played, so it has no player statistics.
Every player row, leader summary, and team figure below belongs only to the Oct. 26, 2025 game. Nothing here mixes in Oct. 9 statistics, season totals, or fantasy columns.
The 2025 season series and the scheduled 2026 game
The 2025 season series split evenly, with each team winning on its home field. New York won the first meeting 34-17 on Oct. 9, and Philadelphia answered with the 38-20 win on Oct. 26 covered here. The CBS Sports recap notes the Eagles “evened the season series against their NFC East rivals after the Giants won 34-17 earlier this month,” which confirms the split from within the Oct. 26 game coverage itself.
The timeline below separates the three matchup dates that commonly surface together in search results. Check the date and home team before you use any number from a stat page for this rivalry.
| Date | Matchup | Status | Result |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oct. 9, 2025 | Eagles at Giants | Completed | Giants won 34-17 (ESPN box score) |
| Oct. 26, 2025 | Giants at Eagles | Completed | Eagles won 38-20 (ESPN box score) |
| Nov. 8, 2026 | Giants at Eagles, Lincoln Financial Field | Scheduled, not played | No result or player stats exist (Sofascore listing) |
The reversal between the two 2025 games is sharp. Per the ESPN box scores, the Oct. 26 win left Philadelphia at 6-2 and New York at 2-6, and it came 17 days after the Giants had beaten the same opponent by 17 points. If you find an Eagles-Giants stat line from 2025 with a Giants win attached, it belongs to the Oct. 9 game, not this one.
Complete player statistics by team
The tables below draw on the finalized CBS Sports box score and the ESPN box score for the Oct. 26 game only. Each table names the team, the players, and the statistical units in its header. Where the cited sources publish only a partial line for a player, the surrounding prose says exactly what is and is not verified rather than filling in estimated numbers. Full punting and return detail is hosted on the CBS box score page; only the rows confirmed in the cited material appear here.
Philadelphia Eagles player stats
Philadelphia’s offense produced 427 total net yards, and its passing line was unusually efficient: four touchdowns on just 20 attempts. Jalen Hurts’ full passing line, per the CBS and ESPN box scores:
| Player | C/ATT | Pass Yds | TD | INT | Sacked (No.-Yds) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| J. Hurts | 15/20 | 179 | 4 | 0 | 4-28 |
The ground game carried the yardage load. Saquon Barkley’s line, per the ESPN box score:
| Player | Carries | Rush Yds | Avg | TD | Long |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S. Barkley | 14 | 150 | 10.7 | 1 | 65 |
The CBS recap credits Tank Bigsby with 104 rushing yards in the same game, which gave Philadelphia two 100-yard rushers. Bigsby’s carry count is not included in the cited excerpts, so it is not tabulated here. Philadelphia’s team net rushing total was 276 yards per the CBS team-stat table.
DeVonta Smith led the receiving group. His full line, consistent across the CBS and ESPN box scores:
| Player | Targets | Rec | Rec Yds | TD | Long |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| D. Smith | 9 | 6 | 84 | 0 | 26 |
Three other Eagles caught touchdown passes, confirmed through the scoring summaries rather than full stat rows: Dallas Goedert caught two touchdowns of 6 and 17 yards, Barkley caught a 9-yard touchdown, and Jahan Dotson caught a 40-yard touchdown, per the CBS recap and ESPN scoring plays. Their complete target and yardage lines are not in the cited excerpts, so treat those as scoring-play facts, not full receiving lines.
On defense, the CBS box score lists J. Hunt with four tackles and 1.0 sack, and the recap states that Jaxson Dart was sacked five times overall, with the ESPN box score recording those five sacks costing 15 yards. On special teams, ESPN’s scoring summary shows Jake Elliott converting the extra points on Barkley’s 65-yard run and Dotson’s 40-yard catch. Elliott’s complete kicking line and Philadelphia’s punting and return rows are available on the CBS box score page but are not itemized in the cited material.
New York Giants player stats
Jaxson Dart’s passing line is the most complete New York row in the cited sources, and it is also the line most likely to be misread, because his individual yardage differs from the team’s net figure (explained in the notes section below). His line, per the CBS and ESPN box scores:
| Player | C/ATT | Pass Yds | TD | INT | Sacked (No.-Yds) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| J. Dart | 14/24 | 193 | 1 | 0 | 5-15 |
The CBS recap adds context: Dart “failed to duplicate his masterful first effort against the Eagles,” a reference to the Oct. 9 game, and finished with 193 yards and one touchdown as the Giants fell to 2-6.
New York’s rushing production was limited. The ESPN box score shows a team total of 21 carries for 68 yards and one touchdown, with a long of 8. The excerpt lists two individual lines without names attached: 10 carries for 39 yards with a long of 6, and 6 carries for 17 yards with one touchdown and a long of 8. The team line shows exactly one Giants rushing touchdown, and ESPN’s scoring summary credits a 2-yard touchdown run to Dart, so the six-carry, 17-yard, one-touchdown line is Dart’s by deduction. The 10-carry, 39-yard rusher is not named in the cited excerpts.
| Line | Carries | Rush Yds | TD | Long |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| J. Dart (identified via scoring summary) | 6 | 17 | 1 | 8 |
| Unnamed rusher in cited excerpt | 10 | 39 | 0 | 6 |
| Team total | 21 | 68 | 1 | 8 |
Wan’Dale Robinson led New York in receiving yards. His line, per the CBS box score:
| Player | Targets | Rec | Rec Yds | TD | Long |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| W. Robinson | 4 | 3 | 48 | 0 | 34 |
Cam Skattebo caught an 18-yard touchdown pass from Dart, per ESPN’s scoring summary; his full receiving line is not in the cited excerpts. On special teams, the CBS box score gives Graham Gano a clean day: 2-of-2 on field goals with a long of 47, 2-of-2 on extra points, and 8 points, which accounts for all New York scoring beyond its two touchdowns. The ESPN excerpt also records no New York fumbles. Giants defensive, punting, and return rows beyond these are hosted on the CBS box score page and are not itemized in the cited material.
Passing, rushing, and receiving leaders
If you only need the headline lines, the leaders split in an unusual way: the losing quarterback out-gained the winning quarterback through the air, while the winning team dominated on the ground. All figures below come from the CBS and ESPN box scores for Oct. 26.
| Category | Philadelphia leader | New York leader |
|---|---|---|
| Passing | J. Hurts: 15/20, 179 yds, 4 TD, 0 INT | J. Dart: 14/24, 193 yds, 1 TD, 0 INT |
| Rushing | S. Barkley: 14 carries, 150 yds, 1 TD | Not named in cited excerpts (top listed line: 10 carries, 39 yds) |
| Receiving | D. Smith: 6 rec, 84 yds | W. Robinson: 3 rec, 48 yds |
Two details make the leader summary incomplete on its own. First, Philadelphia’s rushing depth does not show up in a single-leader view: the CBS recap credits Bigsby with 104 rushing yards behind Barkley’s 150, meaning both the first and second Eagles rushers individually out-gained New York’s entire 68-yard team rushing total. Second, Dart’s 193 passing yards led all passers, yet Hurts produced four times as many passing touchdowns on four fewer attempts. A leaders table answers “who had the most,” not “who scored,” which is why the touchdown table below is separate.
Use this table for quick lookups, and use the full team sections above when you need a specific player’s complete line for citation.
Touchdown contributors and scoring sequence
Seven touchdowns were scored, five by Philadelphia and two by New York. Hurts threw four touchdown passes to three different receivers, Barkley scored on the ground and through the air, and Dart accounted for both New York touchdowns, one passing and one rushing. The mapping below combines ESPN’s scoring plays with the sequencing details in the CBS recap.
| Team | Scorer | Play | Passer | Sequencing support in cited sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PHI | S. Barkley | 65-yd rush (Elliott kick) | Rushing play | First quarter, derived from quarter scores (Eagles’ only Q1 TD and only rushing TD) |
| NYG | C. Skattebo | 18-yd pass (Gano kick) | J. Dart | Quarter not fixed by cited excerpts (see note below) |
| PHI | S. Barkley | 9-yd pass | J. Hurts | Second quarter; CBS recap ties it to the 21-10 halftime lead |
| PHI | D. Goedert | 6-yd pass | J. Hurts | Second quarter; CBS recap ties it to the 21-10 halftime lead |
| PHI | D. Goedert | 17-yd pass | J. Hurts | Fourth quarter; CBS recap says it made the score 31-13 |
| PHI | J. Dotson | 40-yd pass (Elliott kick) | J. Hurts | CBS recap identifies it as Hurts’ fourth TD pass |
| NYG | J. Dart | 2-yd rush (Gano kick) | Rushing play | Quarter not fixed by cited excerpts (see note below) |
One sequencing caveat: ESPN’s quarter line (Giants 7-3-3-7, Eagles 7-14-3-14) shows New York scored one touchdown in the first quarter and one in the fourth, but the cited excerpts do not state which of the two Giants touchdowns, Skattebo’s catch or Dart’s run, came in which quarter. The table therefore does not assert an order between those two plays. Goedert’s two scores gave him a career-best seven touchdowns for the season, per the CBS recap, a season-level note that should not be confused with his two-touchdown game line.
Team statistics behind Philadelphia’s 38-20 win
The team-stat table explains the 18-point margin more cleanly than any single player line. Per the CBS Sports team statistics for this game, Philadelphia out-gained New York 427 to 246 in total net yards and 276 to 68 in net rushing yards, and it averaged 7.5 yards per play against New York’s 4.9.
| Team statistic | Giants | Eagles |
|---|---|---|
| Total net yards | 246 | 427 |
| Total plays | 50 | 57 |
| Average gain per play | 4.9 | 7.5 |
| Net rushing yards | 68 | 276 |
| Quarterback sacked (No.-Yds) | 5-15 (Dart) | 4-28 (Hurts) |
| Turnovers | 0 | 0 |
Three observable relationships stand out. First, the rushing gap tracks directly to Philadelphia’s two 100-yard rushers: Barkley’s 150 yards and Bigsby’s 104 together supplied 254 of the team’s 276 net rushing yards, based on the CBS figures (150 + 104 = 254). Second, Hurts’ passing value was concentrated in scoring rather than volume. He threw for only 179 yards, 14 fewer than Dart, but converted 4 of his 20 attempts into touchdowns, so the yardage advantage came from the ground while the passing game finished drives. Third, the turnover column rules out the most common explanation for a lopsided score: CBS lists turnovers at 0 for both teams, so the margin was built on yardage and scoring efficiency, not takeaways.
The pass rush is the remaining team-level difference. Dart was sacked five times for 15 yards, per the ESPN box score, while Hurts was sacked four times for 28. These are the box-score facts; the cited sources do not support conclusions about play-calling intent or scheme, so none are drawn here.
How to read the box score without mixing stat types
The single most common error with this game’s numbers is treating Dart’s 193 passing yards and New York’s 178 net passing yards as a contradiction. They are different units measuring different things, and both are correct.
Three distinctions keep the figures straight:
- Individual passing yards vs. team net passing yards. A quarterback’s passing yards count completions only. Team net passing yards subtract sack yardage. The ESPN box score lists Dart at 14/24 for 193 yards with five sacks for 15 yards, and New York’s team net passing line at 178. The arithmetic is 193 minus 15, which equals 178. The same pattern holds for Philadelphia: Hurts’ 179 individual yards minus 28 sack yards equals the 151 team net figure in ESPN’s excerpt.
- Game rows vs. season totals and fantasy columns. Stat-provider pages often display season totals, career notes, and fantasy-point columns next to single-game rows. Goedert’s seven season touchdowns, mentioned in the CBS recap, is a season figure; his game line here is two touchdown catches. Every table in this article contains Oct. 26 game data only, and any column whose unit could not be verified from the cited material was left out rather than guessed.
- The 276 vs. 277 rushing question. The structured CBS team-stat table lists Philadelphia’s net rushing yards at 276, while the recap text on the same page cites a conflicting 277-yard figure. This article uses 276 because the structured team table is the finalized statistical record, and small recap-versus-table gaps like this usually reflect rounding or a pre-final text figure. If you are citing this game, 276 net rushing yards is the defensible number, with the discrepancy disclosed.
Applied together, these rules let you quote any line from this game with confidence: confirm the Oct. 26, 2025 date first, pull player lines from the game tables rather than a leaders summary, and label whether a passing figure is individual or team net before comparing it to anything else.
