Filling in for an injured Jake Elliott, Dicker delivered on both field goal attempts — a 42-yard kick to put the Eagles up seven in the third quarter and the eventual game-winning 23-yarder. He also nailed both PAT attempts.
With Dicker’s award, the Eagles are the first team since 1991 to have a Player of the Week in each of the first five weeks.

Philadelphia is also the first team since the 2005 Bears (Weeks 8-12) to win Player of the Week honors in 5 consecutive weeks.
