Among all the Philadelphia Eagles players in their Week 9 New York Giants game, Nolan Smith Jr. is the only one that can make or break this game for them.
Inside the Iggles argues edge rusher Nolan Smith Jr. is key to solving the Philadelphia Eagles' pass-rush issues in Week 9 against the New York Giants.

The writer highlights that Smith is currently the only edge rusher on the Eagles roster to record a sack during the 2026 season.

With fellow edge rushers Jonathan Greenard and Jalyx Hunt held without a sack while dealing with injuries, Miller asserts that Smith must capitalize against a vulnerable Giants offensive line that has allowed 21 sacks this season.
