Save for later

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the remainder of the season with blood clots in his lungs that started in his left calf. The one-time Super Bowl MVP is expected to make a full recovery. Hurts was initially injured after taking a cleat to the left calf against the Los Angeles Rams on Oct. 4. Tests revealed a blood clot in his leg after the team flew to London, but he played in a loss to Jacksonville.

Hurts was placed on injured reserve when a follow-up test showed the clot had moved and is now out indefinitely after clots were identified in his lungs.
