Michael Vick and DeSean Jackson are returning to the sidelines at Lincoln Financial Field.

Delaware State announced Thursday that it was moving its game against Norfolk State to the home of the Philadelphia Eagles. Jackson is now the head coach at Delaware State and Vick is entering his first season as the head coach of Norfolk State.

The game was also moved from Saturday, Nov. 1 to Thursday, Oct. 30.

“This is a tremendous opportunity for our student-athletes to play in a world-class venue on a world-class stage,” Vick said in a statement. “Coach Jackson and I made so many unforgettable memories together at Lincoln Financial Field — this stadium holds special meaning in my NFL career. I am thrilled to be a part of this historic moment and want to thank the Philadelphia Eagles, Norfolk State, and Delaware State for their collaboration to make this happen.”

Vick was hired as Norfolk State’s head coach in December after the school fired coach Dawson Odums. Vick played high school football in Newport News, Virginia, before playing at Virginia Tech.

Less than two weeks after Vick was hired at Norfolk State, the Hornets hired Jackson. Both players enter their jobs at the MEAC schools with little formal coaching experience in the collegiate ranks. Jackson was an assistant high school coach during the 2024 season as more and more HBCUs are turning to professional football players to lead their programs following the success of Colorado coach Deion Sanders at Jackson State.

Vick played for the Eagles for five seasons from 2009 through 2013 after he missed the 2007 and 2008 seasons while spending nearly two years in prison following a guilty plea for his role in a dog fighting ring. Jackson was with the Eagles through Vick’s entire time with the franchise as they both made the Pro Bowl following the 2010 season.

Fotbalisté Crystal Palace a Noahu postoupili do Konferenční ligy

O postupu Crystal Palace rozhodl jediným gólem dvojutkání Mateta. Londýnský celek se díky květnovému triumfu v Anglickém poháru, což byla jeho první velká trofej v klubové historii, probojoval rovnou do ligové fáze Evropské ligy. Kvůli majetkovým vazbám na Lyon byl ale přeřazen do kvalifikace Konferenční ligy.Noah si v domácí odvetě nad Olimpijou Lublaň pohlídal náskok 4:1 ze Slovinska a zvítězil 3:2. V minulé sezoně vstoupil do podzimní fáze Konferenční ligy výhrou 2:0 nad Mladou Boleslaví, v dalších pěti zápasech už ale naplno nebodoval, na stadionu pozdějšího vítěze soutěže Chelsea utrpěl debakl 0:8.Pražská Sparta si zajistila start v Konferenční lize ve středu proti FC Riga. Jména šesti soupeřů se dozví při pátečním losování.
