Eagles Will Be Back In Black Against Giants
By Ray Boyd
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Eagles debuted all-black uniforms in 2014 and wore them in two games. The Eagles wore them on October 12, 2014 during a 27-0 shutout win over the Giants.
On Monday, one year after wearing the jerseys in that win, the team announced that they would be 'Back in Black,' next Monday when the Giants come to town.

The early season match up carries heavy implications as the game will serve as a battle for a first place spot in a division that has struggled this season.
The game will also be a ceremonious occasion as two Eagles legends will be inducted into the team's Hall of Fame.
LB Maxie Baughan and RB Brian Westbrook will both be inducted during halftime.
