Yahoo Sports Who will the Eagles play next? Philadelphia's potential divisional round opponents
The Philadelphia Eagles are flying on to the divisional round.
They took the road to victory against the Green Bay Packers in their wild-card game to become the first NFC team to clinch a spot in the second round of the playoffs. Their divisional round opponent is still to be determined for now.
Since the NFL playoff format is dynamic, Philadelphia will have to wait to find out who they play next round until the rest of the NFC wild-card games finish. The No. 1-seeded Detroit Lions will play the lowest seed remaining after the wild card round, and the Eagles will play the other team standing.

Who will Eagles play next?
The Eagles will play either the Los Angeles Rams or Minnesota Vikings in the divisional round.
Philadelphia was left with just one scenario following the Washington Commanders' win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night. As the lowest remaining seed, Washington is off to Detroit to battle the Lions, leaving the winner of the Rams and Vikings Monday night clash to book a trip to Philly.
The Eagles will host that matchup at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday at 3 p.m. ET.
