The Eagles announced on social media Sunday night that they'll kickoff against the Bucs on Monday at 8:15 p.m. ET. on ABC/ESPN.

Philadelphia (11-6) beat the Bucs (9-8) 25-11 in Week 3 in Tampa Bay. This marks the fourth Monday Night Football game of the season for the Eagles and fifth Monday night game counting FOX's broadcast on Christmas, which is a new record.

The Eagles suffered multiple key injuries before eventually pulling starters in the 27-10 blowout loss to the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday. Philadelphia star receiver A.J. Brown left with a knee injury and never returned. The Eagles were already without DeVonta Smith, Darius Slay, D'Andre Swift and Fletcher Cox against the Giants, and now face injury questions against the Bucs.
