This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.
The closing game of Week 7 of the 2026 NFL season saw the Dallas Cowboys snap a two-game losing streak against the Philadelphia Eagles. Dallas secured a statement win, 38-21, behind Dak Prescott’s big night (15 of 27 for 212 yards and three touchdowns).
Javonte Williams put up a show, too, carrying the ball 25 times for 155 yards and one touchdown. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens combined for nine receptions, 131 yards and three touchdowns at Lincoln Financial Field.
The Cowboys’ remarkable night was somehow overshadowed by a moment that nobody saw coming. Caleb Downs’ Speedflex helmet looked like it hadn’t looked before, sending fans into a frenzy.
