Half-Time Report: Darren Sproles punt return gives Philadelphia Eagles lead

Sproles helps Eagles to lead against Jets

The Philadelphia Eagles have a 24-7 half-time lead against the New York Jets at the MetLife Stadium.

Chip Kelly's side went into the lead in the first quarter with a Cody Parkey field goal from 30 yards.

Into the second, and Darren Sproles returned an 89-yard punt in superb fashion to put the Eagles 10-0 ahead.

Sam Bradford found Ryan Matthews with less than five minutes remaining for the Eagles' third touchdown of the night, before Sproles managed the fourth with two minutes to go.

The Jets managed to finally get onto the scoreboard with six seconds remaining in the second quarter with a Ryan Fitzpatrick pass finding Ben Marshall for 16 yards and a 24-7 score.
