Bleeding Green Nation on Jalen Hurts
From the article
The Eagles actually DID decide to put Jalen Hurts on injured reserve after all... The Philadelphia Eagles will NOT be placing Jalen Hurts on injured reserve while the starting quarterback recovers from a 'superficial blood clot'... The ultimate decision about when Hurts returns to play will come from his medical team.
STACKED’s take
Hurts sidelined with blood clot; Eagles placed him on IR after initially holding off.
Jalen Hurts is sidelined with a superficial blood clot; the Eagles initially decided not to place him on injured reserve, keeping the door open for a potential Week 9 return at the latest, but the source reports the Eagles actually did place him on IR shortly after the initial reporting. The team is gathering additional medical opinions with Hurts' health as the foremost consideration; the blood clot is believed to be treatable. No clear public recovery timeline exists, though there remains a chance Hurts eventually ends up on injured reserve if medical information indicates that direction. By not immediately placing him on IR, the Eagles avoided the four-week minimum sideline requirement that would have locked him out until after Week 6.
