   Eagles Hang On to Beat Julio Jones, Falcons 18-12 on Thursday Night Football

A party and a dramatic win—all in a day's work for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Philadelphia kicked off the 2018 NFL season Thursday by celebrating its Super Bowl championship and then proceeded to beat the Atlanta Falcons 18-12 at Lincoln Financial Field.

Jay Ajayi put the Eagles ahead with an 11-yard touchdown run in the final three minutes, and Philadelphia's defense held strong on the game's final play after an illegal contact penalty gave the Falcons one more chance from its 5-yard line. Matt Ryan threw a ball up for grabs for Julio Jones, and he came down with it but was well out of bounds.
