New York Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles Match Player Stats
The new york giants vs philadelphia eagles match player stats from the October 26, 2025 meeting tell a much bigger story than the final score alone. Philadelphia defeated New York 38-20, but the statistical gap was especially clear on the ground, where the Eagles produced 276 rushing yards compared with only 68 for the Giants. Jalen Hurts also delivered an exceptionally efficient passing performance, throwing four touchdown passes without an interception, while Saquon Barkley returned to his former team and produced 150 rushing yards and two total touchdowns.
For anyone studying this matchup, the most useful approach is not simply to look at who scored the most points. The player numbers reveal how Philadelphia controlled the game, where New York struggled to keep pace, and which individual performances had the greatest influence on the result.
This article breaks down the major passing, rushing, receiving, defensive, kicking, and special teams numbers from the game. It also explains what those figures mean in football terms, rather than simply repeating a box score.
New York Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles Match Player Stats at a Glance
Philadelphia entered the matchup with a 5-2 record according to the supplied game data and improved to 6-2 after the victory. New York fell to 2-6. The Eagles were particularly strong at home, while the Giants were unable to overcome their difficulties on the road.
The final score was:
| Team | Final Score |
| Philadelphia Eagles | 38 |
| New York Giants | 20 |
The most important statistical differences were:
| Category | Giants | Eagles |
| Passing yards | 193 | 179 |
| Passing touchdowns | 1 | 4 |
| Interceptions | 0 | 0 |
| Rushing attempts | 21 | 33 |
| Rushing yards | 68 | 276 |
| Rushing average | 3.2 | 8.4 |
| Rushing touchdowns | 1 | 1 |
| Defensive sacks | 4 | 5 |
| Tackles | 61 | 49 |
| Field goals | 2/2 | 1/2 |
| Extra points | 2/2 | 5/5 |
The first major lesson is that Philadelphia did not win because it simply threw the ball more effectively. The Eagles won because they combined extremely efficient quarterback play with overwhelming rushing production.
How the Game Was Decided
A 38-20 score can sometimes suggest that one team dominated every statistical category. That was not exactly the case here.
New York actually recorded more passing yards than Philadelphia, 193 to 179. The Giants also had 61 total tackles compared with 49 for the Eagles. Those numbers, however, do not tell the whole story.
The decisive difference was efficiency.
Philadelphia averaged 8.4 yards per rushing attempt and gained 276 yards on 33 carries. New York managed just 3.2 yards per attempt and 68 yards on 21 carries.
That created a major difference in the way the game could be played.
Philadelphia could repeatedly establish favorable situations through its running game. New York, meanwhile, had far less success creating consistent yardage on the ground. When a team struggles to run efficiently, the offense often becomes more dependent on passing efficiency and individual plays.
The Eagles did not need that kind of dependence.
They were able to attack with both their quarterback and running backs, which made their offense much harder to contain.
Jalen Hurts Delivered the Most Efficient Passing Performance
Jalen Hurts was one of the clearest statistical standouts.
He completed 15 of 20 passes for 179 yards, averaging 9.0 yards per attempt. More importantly, he threw four touchdown passes and no interceptions.
His listed passer rating was 141.5, with a QBR of 66.2.
His complete passing line was:
| Statistic | Jalen Hurts |
| Completions | 15 |
| Attempts | 20 |
| Completion percentage | 75.0% |
| Passing yards | 179 |
| Yards per attempt | 9.0 |
| Touchdowns | 4 |
| Interceptions | 0 |
| Sacks | 4 |
| Sack yards | 28 |
| QBR | 66.2 |
| Passer rating | 141.5 |
The completion percentage is particularly notable because Hurts did not need a huge volume of attempts to influence the game.
He completed 75% of his passes while averaging 9.0 yards per attempt. That combination suggests that Philadelphia was not simply relying on short, low-risk completions. The offense was producing meaningful yardage while maintaining efficiency.
The four touchdown passes are even more significant.
Hurts accounted for four Philadelphia passing touchdowns despite throwing only 20 attempts. That means the Eagles converted their passing opportunities into points at a very high rate.
He also avoided turnovers.
For an offense that already produced 276 rushing yards, four touchdown passes without an interception created an extremely difficult challenge for New York.
Jaxson Dart’s Numbers Show a Different Offensive Story
Jaxson Dart completed 14 of 24 passes for 193 yards and one touchdown. He did not throw an interception.
His statistical line was:
| Statistic | Jaxson Dart |
| Completions | 14 |
| Attempts | 24 |
| Completion percentage | 58.3% |
| Passing yards | 193 |
| Yards per attempt | 8.0 |
| Touchdowns | 1 |
| Interceptions | 0 |
| Sacks | 5 |
| Sack yards | 15 |
| QBR | 59.4 |
| Passer rating | 98.1 |
There are positive elements in these numbers.
Dart averaged 8.0 yards per attempt, which indicates that the Giants were capable of producing useful yardage when the passing game connected. He also protected the football and did not throw an interception.
However, five sacks were costly.
Sacks do more than subtract yardage. They can also put an offense behind schedule, reduce the number of available offensive plays, and create longer down-and-distance situations.
Philadelphia recorded five sacks as a team, while New York recorded four. That defensive pressure contributed to the difference in offensive efficiency.
Dart’s 193 passing yards also exceeded Hurts’ 179. But that advantage had little value because Philadelphia generated dramatically more rushing production and scored four passing touchdowns.
This is an important lesson when analyzing quarterback statistics: passing yards alone are not enough to determine which quarterback played the more effective game.
Saquon Barkley Was a Central Figure in the Matchup
Saquon Barkley produced one of the most eye-catching individual performances of the game.
He rushed 14 times for 150 yards, averaging 10.7 yards per carry. His longest run covered 65 yards, and he scored one rushing touchdown.
He also caught four passes for 24 yards and one touchdown.
His combined statistical contribution was:
| Statistic | Saquon Barkley |
| Rushing attempts | 14 |
| Rushing yards | 150 |
| Rushing average | 10.7 |
| Longest run | 65 yards |
| Rushing touchdowns | 1 |
| Receptions | 4 |
| Receiving yards | 24 |
| Receiving touchdowns | 1 |
Barkley’s rushing average is extraordinary in the context of the game.
Philadelphia as a team averaged 8.4 yards per carry. Barkley individually averaged 10.7.
That means the Eagles were not merely accumulating rushing yards through volume. They were producing explosive gains.
His 65-yard longest run was also one of the biggest individual plays of the matchup.
The receiving touchdown added another layer to his performance. Barkley therefore contributed directly as both a runner and receiver.
From a statistical perspective, his performance demonstrates why total offensive contribution matters. Looking only at his 150 rushing yards would understate his impact because he also added a receiving touchdown.
Tank Bigsby Added Another Major Rushing Threat
Tank Bigsby also made a significant contribution to Philadelphia’s rushing dominance.
He carried the ball nine times for 104 yards, averaging 11.6 yards per attempt. His longest run was 29 yards.
His line was:
| Statistic | Tank Bigsby |
| Carries | 9 |
| Rushing yards | 104 |
| Average | 11.6 |
| Longest run | 29 yards |
| Rushing touchdowns | 0 |
Bigsby’s numbers are important because they show that Philadelphia’s rushing success was not dependent on one player.
Barkley had 150 yards.
Bigsby had 104.
Together, they accounted for 254 rushing yards.
Philadelphia finished with 276 rushing yards as a team, meaning those two players were responsible for the vast majority of the team’s rushing production.
That is one of the strongest indicators of the Eagles’ offensive control.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Cam Skattebo Led New York’s Ground Game
New York did not receive the same rushing production.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. carried 10 times for 39 yards, averaging 3.9 yards per attempt. His longest run was six yards.
He also recorded two receptions for 14 yards.
Cam Skattebo had three carries for 12 yards and averaged 4.0 yards per attempt. He added one reception for 18 yards and scored a receiving touchdown.
Their numbers were:
| Player | Carries | Rushing Yards | Average | Long |
| Tyrone Tracy Jr. | 10 | 39 | 3.9 | 6 |
| Cam Skattebo | 3 | 12 | 4.0 | 5 |
The difference between these figures and Philadelphia’s rushing numbers is substantial.
Tracy averaged fewer than four yards per carry. Skattebo was slightly above four.
Philadelphia, by comparison, averaged 8.4 yards per carry as a team.
That gap made it much easier for Philadelphia to stay ahead of the chains and maintain offensive momentum.
Philadelphia’s Receiving Production Was Highly Efficient
The Eagles completed 15 passes for 179 yards and four touchdowns.
Their receiving production was spread among several players.
DeVonta Smith led the team in receptions and receiving yards, catching six passes for 84 yards. He averaged 14.0 yards per reception and recorded a 26-yard long.
Jahan Dotson had only one reception, but it was a major play. His lone catch covered 40 yards and resulted in a touchdown.
Dallas Goedert caught three passes for 28 yards and two touchdowns.
Barkley added four catches for 24 yards and one receiving touchdown.
The major Philadelphia receiving numbers were:
| Player | Receptions | Yards | Average | TDs | Long |
| DeVonta Smith | 6 | 84 | 14.0 | 0 | 26 |
| Jahan Dotson | 1 | 40 | 40.0 | 1 | 40 |
| Dallas Goedert | 3 | 28 | 9.3 | 2 | 17 |
| Saquon Barkley | 4 | 24 | 6.0 | 1 | 12 |
| Xavier Gipson | 1 | 3 | 3.0 | 0 | 3 |
This distribution tells us something useful about the Eagles’ offense.
Smith provided consistent receiving production.
Dotson provided an explosive scoring play.
Goedert was highly effective in the red zone.
Barkley contributed as an additional receiving option.
That variety made it difficult for New York to focus defensive attention on one target.
DeVonta Smith Was Philadelphia’s Leading Receiver
DeVonta Smith’s six receptions for 84 yards represented the largest receiving total for Philadelphia.
His 14.0 yards per reception average is particularly useful when evaluating his performance. It shows that his receptions were not simply short completions designed to move the offense incrementally.
He also recorded a 26-yard reception.
Although Smith did not score a touchdown, his yardage production helped sustain Philadelphia’s passing attack.
In a game where Hurts threw only 20 passes, recording six receptions means Smith accounted for a substantial share of the completed passes.
That makes him an important part of understanding how Philadelphia generated 179 passing yards without needing a high-volume aerial attack.
Dallas Goedert Made His Opportunities Count
Dallas Goedert caught three passes for 28 yards and scored two touchdowns.
His average was 9.3 yards per reception, with a longest reception of 17 yards.
The standout number is the two touchdowns.
Goedert’s production is a strong example of why receiving yardage and scoring impact should be analyzed separately.
A receiver can lead a team in yards without scoring, while another player can have fewer yards but have a larger effect on the final score.
That was the case here.
Three catches and 28 yards may not look overwhelming in isolation, but two touchdowns made Goedert one of Philadelphia’s most important scoring contributors.
New York’s Receiving Numbers Were More Modest
The Giants completed 14 passes for 193 yards and one touchdown.
Wan’Dale Robinson led New York with three receptions for 48 yards. He averaged 16.0 yards per catch and had a 34-yard long.
Devin Singletary recorded one reception for 28 yards.
Darius Slayton caught two passes for 26 yards.
Daniel Bellinger added one catch for 21 yards.
Theo Johnson recorded three catches for 20 yards.
Beaux Collins caught one pass for 18 yards.
Cam Skattebo contributed one reception for 18 yards and one touchdown.
The main receiving figures were:
| Player | Receptions | Yards | Average | TDs | Long |
| Wan’Dale Robinson | 3 | 48 | 16.0 | 0 | 34 |
| Devin Singletary | 1 | 28 | 28.0 | 0 | 28 |
| Darius Slayton | 2 | 26 | 13.0 | 0 | 19 |
| Daniel Bellinger | 1 | 21 | 21.0 | 0 | 21 |
| Theo Johnson | 3 | 20 | 6.7 | 0 | 12 |
| Beaux Collins | 1 | 18 | 18.0 | 0 | 18 |
| Cam Skattebo | 1 | 18 | 18.0 | 1 | 18 |
Robinson’s 48 yards led the Giants, but the distribution also shows that no New York receiver produced a dominant touchdown-heavy performance comparable to Philadelphia’s passing attack.
Why the Rushing Difference Matters So Much
The most important statistic in the entire game may be the 276-68 rushing-yard difference.
Philadelphia gained 208 more rushing yards than New York.
That is not a minor statistical advantage.
It changes the entire structure of a football game.
When a team consistently produces successful rushing plays, it can:
- Create manageable down-and-distance situations
- Keep the offense balanced
- Produce explosive plays
- Reduce pressure on the quarterback
- Control possession more effectively
- Force the defense to respect multiple offensive threats
- Create opportunities for play-action passing
Philadelphia’s 8.4 yards per carry demonstrates just how efficient the ground attack was.
New York’s 3.2-yard average tells the opposite story.
The Giants needed significantly more offensive attempts to generate meaningful rushing yardage, while Philadelphia could produce large gains quickly.
Defensive Player and Team Statistics
The defensive numbers were relatively competitive compared with the offensive rushing gap.
New York recorded 61 tackles, including 33 solo tackles. The Giants also produced four sacks, three tackles for loss, four passes defended, and five quarterback hits.
Philadelphia recorded 49 tackles, including 35 solo tackles. The Eagles produced five sacks, seven tackles for loss, four passes defended, and six quarterback hits.
| Defensive Category | Giants | Eagles |
| Total tackles | 61 | 49 |
| Solo tackles | 33 | 35 |
| Sacks | 4 | 5 |
| Tackles for loss | 3 | 7 |
| Passes defended | 4 | 4 |
| QB hits | 5 | 6 |
| Interceptions | 0 | 0 |
The Eagles had fewer total tackles, but that does not necessarily indicate weaker defense.
In many cases, fewer tackles can simply mean the defense was more successful at preventing extended offensive drives or forcing unsuccessful plays before they developed.
Philadelphia’s seven tackles for loss and five sacks demonstrate significant disruption.
The Giants also generated four sacks, showing that New York’s defense had the ability to pressure Hurts.
The biggest problem was converting defensive efforts into enough offensive production to keep the game close.
No Interceptions or Fumbles Changed the Turnover Battle
Neither team recorded an interception.
Neither team recorded a fumble in the supplied statistics.
That means turnovers were not the primary explanation for Philadelphia’s victory.
This is an important distinction.
Sometimes a large final-score difference is created by short fields resulting from interceptions or fumbles. That was not the case here.
Philadelphia’s advantage came largely from execution and efficiency.
Hurts protected the football.
Dart also avoided interceptions.
Both teams finished without recorded fumbles.
Therefore, the Eagles’ 18-point victory was built primarily through offensive production, especially rushing efficiency and touchdown conversion.
Special Teams and Kicking Breakdown
The kicking statistics were relatively balanced in terms of points.
Graham Gano converted both of his field-goal attempts and both extra points for New York, finishing with eight points.
Jake Elliott made one of two field-goal attempts and all five extra-point attempts for Philadelphia, also finishing with eight points.
| Kicker | Field Goals | Extra Points | Points |
| Graham Gano | 2/2 | 2/2 | 8 |
| Jake Elliott | 1/2 | 5/5 | 8 |
The difference in scoring therefore came almost entirely from touchdowns rather than field-goal production.
Philadelphia scored five touchdowns based on the supplied scoring breakdown, while New York scored three touchdowns and added two field goals.
That reinforces another key point: the Eagles were much more successful at finishing possessions with touchdowns.
Punting and Field Position
Jamie Gillan punted four times for 194 yards, averaging 48.5 yards per punt. His longest punt was 58 yards, and one punt was placed inside the 20-yard line.
Braden Mann punted once for Philadelphia for 57 yards, averaging 57.0 yards.
The figures were:
| Statistic | Jamie Gillan | Braden Mann |
| Punts | 4 | 1 |
| Punt yards | 194 | 57 |
| Average | 48.5 | 57.0 |
| Touchbacks | 0 | 0 |
| Inside 20 | 1 | 0 |
| Long | 58 | 57 |
The number of punts is itself informative.
New York punted four times, while Philadelphia punted only once.
That difference indicates that Philadelphia sustained offensive possessions more effectively and had fewer drives ending without points or continued offensive progress.
Kick Returns and Punt Returns
New York recorded five kick returns for 145 yards, averaging 29.0 yards per return. The longest return was 33 yards.
Philadelphia had three kick returns for 99 yards, averaging 33.0 yards per return, with a long of 41 yards.
Philadelphia also recorded one punt return by Xavier Gipson for 17 yards.
No New York punt returns were recorded in the supplied data.
These numbers did not define the game, but they provide additional context regarding field position and special teams efficiency.
What the Player Statistics Say About Philadelphia’s Offense
The statistical profile of the Eagles is unusually balanced.
Hurts completed 75% of his passes.
He threw four touchdowns.
The team rushed for 276 yards.
Barkley averaged 10.7 yards per carry.
Bigsby averaged 11.6 yards per carry.
Smith averaged 14.0 yards per reception.
That combination means Philadelphia could generate explosive plays in multiple ways.
The offense did not have to rely on one specific route concept, one receiver, or one running back.
The Eagles were able to attack through:
- Efficient quarterback passing
- Explosive rushing
- Multiple receiving options
- Red-zone efficiency
- Big-play ability
That combination explains why the offense produced 38 points despite Hurts throwing only 20 passes.
What the Numbers Say About New York’s Offense
New York’s offense had some positive individual statistics.
Dart averaged 8.0 yards per attempt.
The Giants did not throw an interception.
Robinson averaged 16.0 yards per reception.
Gano was perfect on field goals.
The problem was consistency.
The rushing attack produced only 68 yards.
The team averaged 3.2 yards per carry.
Dart was sacked five times.
The Giants also punted four times.
Those numbers indicate an offense that could create individual positive plays but struggled to maintain the same level of efficiency across the game.
That distinction is important.
A team can produce a 34-yard reception or a 28-yard catch and still struggle offensively if it cannot consistently generate first downs and rushing efficiency.
Comparing the Quarterbacks Fairly
A simple comparison might make the quarterback statistics appear close.
Dart:
- 14 completions
- 24 attempts
- 193 yards
- 1 touchdown
- 0 interceptions
Hurts:
- 15 completions
- 20 attempts
- 179 yards
- 4 touchdowns
- 0 interceptions
Dart had more passing yards.
Hurts had fewer attempts.
But Hurts produced three more passing touchdowns.
That makes Hurts’ efficiency the more important factor.
His 75% completion rate and 141.5 passer rating reflect how effectively Philadelphia converted its passing opportunities into meaningful production.
Dart’s 98.1 rating was respectable, and his lack of interceptions was positive, but five sacks and only one passing touchdown limited the overall impact of his passing performance.
The Most Important Individual Performances
Several players deserve special recognition based on the supplied statistics.
Jalen Hurts
Hurts completed 15 of 20 passes for 179 yards and four touchdowns without an interception.
His efficiency was central to Philadelphia’s victory.
Saquon Barkley
Barkley rushed for 150 yards on only 14 carries and added a receiving touchdown.
His 65-yard run was one of the game’s most explosive plays.
Tank Bigsby
Bigsby added 104 rushing yards on nine carries.
His 11.6-yard average demonstrates the depth of Philadelphia’s rushing attack.
DeVonta Smith
Smith caught six passes for 84 yards and averaged 14.0 yards per reception.
He was Philadelphia’s leading receiver by both catches and receiving yards.
Jaxson Dart
Dart passed for 193 yards and one touchdown without an interception.
His 8.0 yards per attempt showed that he could generate useful passing production, although the five sacks were costly.
Wan’Dale Robinson
Robinson led the Giants in receiving yards with 48 and averaged 16.0 yards per catch.
Dallas Goedert
Goedert caught three passes for 28 yards but scored two touchdowns, making his red-zone contribution particularly significant.
New York Giants vs Philadelphia Eagles Match Player Stats: Key Takeaways
The new york giants vs philadelphia eagles match player stats provide several clear conclusions.
First, Philadelphia’s rushing performance was the defining statistical advantage.
The Eagles gained 276 rushing yards compared with 68 for New York.
Second, Hurts was exceptionally efficient.
He completed 75% of his passes, threw four touchdowns, and did not commit an interception.
Third, Barkley and Bigsby combined for 254 rushing yards. That meant Philadelphia’s rushing attack was not dependent on a single player.
Fourth, New York’s passing game was more productive in raw yardage, with 193 yards compared with Philadelphia’s 179. However, Philadelphia converted its passing opportunities into far more touchdowns.
Fifth, turnovers did not determine the game. Neither team recorded an interception or fumble according to the supplied data.
Sixth, Philadelphia generated five sacks and seven tackles for loss, showing that its defense could disrupt New York even without creating turnovers.
Finally, the kicking numbers were surprisingly even in points. Both Gano and Elliott finished with eight kicking points, meaning the difference came primarily from touchdowns and offensive efficiency.
How to Read These Stats Without Being Misled
One of the biggest mistakes in sports analysis is focusing on isolated numbers.
Passing yards are useful, but they do not automatically identify the better quarterback performance.
Rushing yards are useful, but volume alone does not indicate efficiency.
Tackles are useful, but more tackles do not necessarily mean a better defense.
Receiving yards are useful, but touchdowns can completely change the importance of a player’s contribution.
The better method is to combine volume, efficiency, scoring, and context.
For this game, that approach produces a clear picture.
Philadelphia’s offensive efficiency was superior.
The Eagles produced explosive rushing plays.
Hurts was highly efficient through the air.
The defense generated pressure.
The team converted scoring opportunities into touchdowns.
New York had some encouraging individual statistics, but the team could not match Philadelphia’s overall efficiency.
Why the 38-20 Final Score Makes Sense Statistically
The final score becomes easier to understand when the major numbers are viewed together.
Philadelphia had:
- 276 rushing yards
- 8.4 rushing yards per attempt
- 179 passing yards
- Four passing touchdowns
- Five sacks
- Seven tackles for loss
- One punt
- No interceptions thrown
- No recorded fumbles
New York had:
- 68 rushing yards
- 3.2 rushing yards per attempt
- 193 passing yards
- One passing touchdown
- Four sacks
- Three tackles for loss
- Four punts
- No interceptions thrown
- No recorded fumbles
The Eagles therefore combined superior rushing production with significantly better touchdown efficiency.
That is the statistical foundation of the 38-20 result.
Final Assessment
The October 26, 2025 meeting between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles was a strong example of why football statistics need to be interpreted as a connected picture rather than a collection of isolated figures.
Philadelphia’s 276 rushing yards were the foundation of the performance. Barkley produced 150 yards, Bigsby added 104, and the Eagles averaged 8.4 yards per carry. That ground production created a favorable environment for Hurts, who completed 15 of 20 passes for 179 yards and four touchdowns without an interception.
New York’s passing numbers were respectable. Dart threw for 193 yards and one touchdown while avoiding an interception. Robinson produced 48 receiving yards, and several Giants receivers generated efficient gains. However, the Giants’ rushing attack produced only 68 yards, while Dart absorbed five sacks.
The defensive statistics also show that Philadelphia generated meaningful pressure without relying on turnovers. The Eagles recorded five sacks and seven tackles for loss, while New York produced four sacks of its own.
Ultimately, the new york giants vs philadelphia eagles match player stats point to one central explanation for the outcome: Philadelphia was considerably more efficient with its offensive opportunities. The Eagles ran the ball at an exceptional rate, converted passing opportunities into touchdowns, created explosive plays, and maintained enough defensive pressure to keep New York from matching that production.
The most revealing comparison is not 38 points versus 20 points. It is 276 rushing yards versus 68, four passing touchdowns versus one, and 8.4 rushing yards per attempt versus 3.2. Those numbers explain the game far more clearly than the final score by itself.
