Bleeding Green Nation on Jalen Hurts
From the article
Jalen Hurts is 'out indefinitely' … now what for the Eagles? It'll be interesting to see if there are any notable stylistic differences between Sean Mannion calling the game for Hurts versus McKee.
STACKED’s take
Hurts out indefinitely with blood clot; return depends on clot stabilization per medical assessment.
Hurts is out indefinitely with a superficial blood clot in his calf, ruled out for Week 6 against the Panthers. A medical expert quoted in the source explains the clot's trajectory will determine his return timeline: if it stabilizes or resolves, he could potentially play; if it worsens or migrates to deep veins, it could develop into deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism, which can be life-threatening. The source notes Hurts was playing on the clot when it was discovered, and doctors determined he was safe to play at that time, but week-to-week ultrasounds will be required to monitor progression. His absence is described as 'the latest blow to a Philadelphia squad that has already been dealt a ton of them.'
