Philadelphia Eagles vs New England Patriots NFL Preseason Football Tonight 7:30PM EST
posted August 22, 2008 - 2:53pmNew England Patriots (0-2-0) are winless thus far in the NFL season. Tony Hunt is one player to keep your eye on tonight. The second-year player was buried down the Eagles' depth chart at running back, but his inspired play against the Panthers prompted the coaches to try him out at fullback. He will become the third player to start at the position in three weeks, and his ability to pick up the position could determine whether he makes the team.
In what is an ongoing issue for New England, neither of the team's three backups have distinguished themselves in two preseason games. Matt Cassel and Kevin O'Connell saw all the snaps against the Buccaneers, so look for Matt Gutierrez to see plenty of action, especially if a sore foot continues to sideline Tom Brady. However Brady should be ready to go once the season starts.
