The Philadelphia Eagles are likely to face off against a familiar face at quarterback when they host the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Raiders quarterback Geno Stone is unlikely to start for the team on Sunday due to a shoulder injury. If he can’t go, former Eagles backup quarterback Kenny Pickett will be in line to start for Las Vegas.
Pickett served as the backup to Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia last season, and he has a Super Bowl ring as a result. Pickett was even able to take some snaps in the Big Game since Philadelphia was so far ahead of Kansas City in the closing minutes of the contest.
The Eagles traded Pickett to the Cleveland Browns in March for a fifth-round pick and Dorian Thompson-Robinson. The Browns then subsequently traded Pickett to the Raiders for a fifth-rounder in the 2026 NFL Draft.
Pickett has appeared in three games for the Raiders this season and completed 10 of his 14 pass attempts for 105 yards and a touchdown. If Pickett does start against Philadelphia, it will be his first start of the season.
