From the episode

Jalen Hurts, it was reported that he is going to miss this week's game with what was described as a superficial blood clot in his calf... could be weeks or months. And then if he's on blood thinners, you really cannot play... based on the history of this type of thing and what you need to do with the blood thinners, looks like it's going to be three months.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Hurts out indefinitely with blood clot; likely three-month absence per source.

Jalen Hurts is out indefinitely with a superficial blood clot in his calf that may have moved, potentially creating a more serious situation similar to Chris Olave's extended absence last year. NBC Philly's John Clark reports Hurts could miss more than one game—potentially weeks or months. If placed on blood thinners, he cannot play. Based on historical precedent with this injury type and blood thinner protocols, the source estimates a three-month absence, which would sideline him for the remainder of the fantasy season. The Eagles signed Joe Milton as a replacement.
