LOOK: Top photos from first half of Eagles-Chiefs Super Bowl LVII matchup

The Eagles were the NFL’s top team for the bulk of the 2022 regular season and they established themselves as the more physical team through 30 minutes of football in Super Bowl 57.

Buoyed by three total touchdowns from All-Pro quarterback Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia jumped out to a 7-0 lead and overcame a fumble to lead 24-14 at the end of one half.

The Eagles were 6-10 on third downs and converted one crucial fourth down to finish off a scoring drive.

Patrick Mahomes reaggravated his ankle injury and his condition going forward in Glendale will be something to watch.

With the second half underway, here are the top photos from the first half of action in Super Bowl LVII.
