description

Stepping up as he's been thrust into a starting role for the sensational Philadelphia defense, linebacker Oren Burks put on display exactly what a defender should do as a ball-carrier picks himself up from the turf, punching the ball free for a fumble to create a massive turnover. The sudden change of possession at the very end of the third quarter prevented Washington from cutting into the Eagles' 11-point lead and led to a Philadelphia touchdown that effectively put the game out of reach. Burks had nine total tackles in this one to goa long with one sack and one forced fumble, as Philly defeated the Commanders, 55-23, in the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 26, 2025.
