With Jalen Hurts Recovering From Blood Clots, Eagles Must Try and Find Path to Playoffs without Him
The Eagles said Hurts has deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, and blood thinners will keep him out of football activities.
- Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is on injured reserve and expected to miss the rest of the season after being diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli.
- Hurts took a cleat to his calf area on Oct. 4 against the Los Angeles Rams, an injury that progressed into the serious blood clot condition during Philadelphia's trip to London.
- Treatment involves blood thinners, preventing Hurts from participating in any football activities. Dr. Vincent Tanbe noted the condition is rare, with only about a 4% chance a superficial clot progresses to deep vein thrombosis.
- Commissioner Roger Goodell said the NFL welcomes an investigation into The Eagles' handling of Hurts' blood clots after the players' union requested one.
- The Eagles have lost four consecutive games for the first time since 2020 and face Dallas on Monday night. With The Giants leading the NFC East, Philadelphia remains in the playoff hunt despite the quarterback setback.
