DeVonta Smith and Jalen Hurts connect on 63-yard TD

PHILADELPHIA -- Eagles receiver DeVonta Smith might just be on the verge of a huge season. He has two touchdowns on the year through six-plus quarters, including a long 63-yard score in the second half against the Minnesota Vikings that staked the Eagles to a 27-7 lead in an eventual 34-28 victory.

On third-and-4 early in the third quarter, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts stood in the pocket as a blitzing linebacker shot through the gap, and sent one deep for Smith, who had separated from corner Akayleb Evans. Smith hauled it in, trotted to the end zone and then blew kisses to the roaring fans to celebrate. In the first half, Smith elevated to haul in a 54-yarder. He finished the game with 131 yards and the touchdown on just four catches. In Week 1 against the Patriots, Smith had seven catches for 47 yards and a score.
