Players' cleats melted during Tennessee Titans game as turf hit 157 degrees

What he's saying: Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Cam Jurgens, who went through multiple pairs of cleats, said his feet were still "burning" after the game.

• "Halftime was like a NASCAR pit crew helping me get ready for the second half," he said. "That turf was just radiating."

Titans safety Kevin Winston Jr. got water sprayed on his cleats between plays.

Threat level: Eagles coach Nick Sirianni told reporters he needed IV fluids after the game.

The big picture: "This is why we want all grass fields, to create a standard of play in the league where we're not putting players in dangerous positions if we don't have to.," Philadelphia left tackle Jordan Mailata told reporters.

The bright side: This side effect of extreme heat won't be a problem for the Titans much longer. The new Nissan Stadium opening next season will be indoor — and air conditioned.
