Eagles rule out Jalen Hurts for Carolina game with blood clot

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 15 Oct, 18:32 · Archive

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is ruled out for Sunday's game against Carolina because of a blood clot in his calf. The Eagles announced the decision on Thursday.

Hurts sustained the injury two weeks ago during a game against the Los Angeles Rams when he took a cleat to his calf area. Despite this, he was cleared to play and travelled with the team to London for their game against Jacksonville, which he played in.

After returning to Philadelphia, Hurts received treatment on Monday and Tuesday and was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. However, an ultrasound performed on Wednesday revealed what the Eagles described as 'movement in the small blood clot.' The team said in a statement they would determine the appropriate course of treatment.
