PHILADELPHIA — Kenny Pickett says it was "incredibly special" to start a game for the team he grew up rooting for, the Philadelphia Eagles. The backup quarterback left Sunday's 41-7 win over the Dallas Cowboys with a rib injury but he says he'll "be OK." Pickett is a New Jersey native who started going to Eagles games with his dad and grandfather at age 5. He ran and threw for touchdowns before he was hurt on a hit by Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons. Pickett started in place of Jalen Hurts, who was sidelined because of a concussion.
