Medical Consultations Lead to Injured Reserve
The Philadelphia Eagles have decided to place Jalen Hurts on injured reserve after consultations with numerous doctors and experts. The move will sideline the star quarterback indefinitely. The Eagles waited to make a roster decision until after consulting with medical experts. Ever since Hurts has been dealing with the superficial blood clot in his calf, the team has been attempting to explore every option and gather as much information as possible. Hurts has met with doctors, had others review his blood clot, and weigh in with their knowledge. Additional information surfaced that made Philadelphia believe the wisest course of action was to place Hurts on injured reserve, giving him the time he needs to heal.
Recovery Timeline and Roster Changes
The Eagles maintained all along that they were not going to rush into any decisions about the future of Hurts, which is why they ruled out the three-time Pro Bowler for the game against the Carolina Panthers. Hurts now will miss games against the Panthers, Dallas Cowboys, Washington Commanders, and the New York Giants before the Eagles have their bye in week 10 with a chance to fully evaluate the health of their quarterback and their team outlook. Philadelphia believes the blood clot is treatable, and the ultimate decision about when Hurts returns to play will come from his medical team. While Hurts has been receiving treatment, the Eagles have been working to fortify their roster. Backup quarterback Tanner McKee will start against the Panthers, and rookie Cole Payton was promoted to backup. Philadelphia also signed quarterback Joe Milton off the practice squad of Dallas.
