Eagles get difference-maker back in time for Super Bowl rematch

As the Philadelphia Eagles prepare for a Super Bowl rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs, they may have a massive difference-maker back in the lineup. 

After missing the last five games with a foot injury, Eagles guard Cam Jurgens is on track to return for the clash with the defending champs on "Monday Night Football." In a game featuring the likes of star quarterbacks Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes, getting back a second-year offensive lineman might not seem like a big deal on the surface. However, he could have a significant impact, especially for the Eagles run game.

Before Jurgens went down in Week 4, the Eagles were off and running. Through the season's first four games, Philly rushed for 661 yards and 4.7 yards per carry, which would be good enough for third in the NFL entering Week 11. Meanwhile, the Eagles struggled to get anything going on the ground without Jurgens in the lineup. While the team went 4-1 in the five games Jurgens missed, the rushing game suffered greatly, averaging only 3.4 yards a carry off 150 attempts, which would rank 31st in the NFL today.
