Adam Schefter questions Eagles' handling of Jalen Hurts' injury
Summary

Adam Schefter has challenged allegations that the Philadelphia Eagles mishandled Jalen Hurts’ medical situation. Hurts is expected to miss the rest of the 2026 season after blood clots were found in his lungs. Questions arose regarding his participation against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London following the discovery of a blood clot in his calf. Schefter notes that the Eagles listed Hurts with a calf issue rather than detailing the clot, but he cautions against jumping to conclusions about violations without clear evidence. Further investigation into Eagles' compliance with NFL rules is anticipated.
