Eagles DE Josh Sweat lands ahead of Aaron Donald as the 2nd- highest graded defensive player in Week 1

The Philadelphia Eagles will work to get over Sunday’s dreadful 27-17 loss to Washington on the road, that saw the Birds give up 27 unanswered points. Lost in the misery was a strong performance from defensive end Josh Sweat.

Sweat’s strong performance against Washington could make things difficult for Derek Barnett, who’s looking to regain his standing on the depth chart amid another battle with injuries.

Sweat was dominant in the loss, playing 70% of the snaps at defensive end and finishing ahead of the Rams Aaron Donald, as the second highest-graded player in the NFL at the position this week.
