The 2012 season was the Philadelphia Eagles' 80th in the National Football League (NFL), their 14th and final season under head coach Andy Reid, and their 10th playing home games at Lincoln Financial Field. Despite starting the season 3–1, the team would massively struggle, the team failed to improve on their 8–8 record from 2011, and went 1–11 in their final 12 games en route to a 4–12 record, their worst record since 1998 when they won only three games and also finished with a losing record for the first time since 2005. Additionally, their four wins were not only by less than three points each, but all four of them had their deciding scores being acquired after the two-minute warnings. On December 31, 2012, Reid was fired after 14 seasons as the Eagles' head coach. Also, for the fourth consecutive season, the team the Eagles played in their home opener went on to win the Super Bowl.
The Eagles acquired the 12th overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft, with which they selected defensive tackle Fletcher Cox, from the Seattle Seahawks in exchange for the 15th overall selection, along with a pick in each of the fourth and sixth rounds.
