The kicker went 4-for-4 on field goals in the victory over the Patriots and accounted for 13 of the Eagles’ 25 points.
Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has been named NFC special teams player of the week following his Week 1 performance in the 25-20 victory against the New England Patriots.
Elliott, who is in his seventh season with the team, went 4-for-4 on his field goals of 32, 48, 51, and 56 yards. In total, he accounted for 13 of the Eagles’ 25 points, going 1-for-2 on extra points. The 28-year-old Elliott was the only kicker in Week 1 to make two field goals of at least 50 yards. He has received player-of-the-week honors three other times in his career .
Last year, Eagles cornerback and core special-teamer Zech McPhearson earned the same distinction in Week 1 when he made two tackles and recovered an onside kick attempt in a 38-35 victory against the Detroit Lions.Josh Tolentino
