NFL Week 1 Preview – Philadelphia Eagles vs. Washington Redskins Live Streaming
Led by Robert Griffin III, the Washington Redskins are set to make their 2013 regular season debut on Tuesday night and play hosts to the Philadelphia Eagles, featuring Michael Vick in a battle between projected NFC East contenders.
RG3 has been cleared to play by team doctors as early as last week and is set to start under center for Washington in the first Monday Night Football game of the season.
Vick, meanwhile, has retaken the starting job with Philadelphia. The 34-year-old quarterback appears healthy for the new season and hopes to replicate his success with the Eagles when he led the team to post-season slot in 2010.
