Mandatory Credit: Eric Canha-USA TODAY Sports Kendall Milton ran for a 1-yard touchdown with 4:23 to play and the Philadelphia Eagles added a go-ahead two-point conversion to edge the New England Patriots 14-13 on Thursday in Foxborough, Mass.
Ainias Smith caught the decisive two-point pass from Tanner McKee.
The Patriots (1-1) had two more possessions with a chance to retake the lead, but the first ended in a punt and the second was thwarted by a lost fumble near midfield.
McKee completed 15 of 19 passes for 140 yards, the most effective of three Eagles quarterbacks who played while regular starter Jalen Hurts sat out.
Wide receiver Joseph Ngata caught five passes for 88 yards for Philadelphia (2-0), both game-high totals.
Patriots quarterback Jacoby Brissett played three series and connected on 3 of 7 passes for 17 yards with an interception. Three other QBs followed him into action, but New England wound up completing just 14 of 29 passes for 113 yards.
Rookie first-round pick Drake Maye ran for the Patriots' lone touchdown, a 4-yard score late in the first half. Maye threw for 47 yards on 6-of-11 passing.
