Jalen Hurts joins lengthy Eagles injury report ahead of Week 5 game
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles face growing injury concerns as they prepare for their Week 5 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. Quarterback Jalen Hurts has been added to the injury report with a calf issue, although he participated fully in practice. Star running back Saquon Barkley is ruled out after injuring his hamstring in Week 4, while lead wide receiver Devonta Smith and backup Tank Bigsby are also out. Despite these injury challenges, tight end Dallas Goedert is expected to return after missing several games due to a knee injury. The Eagles, who have relied heavily on key players in recent seasons, must adapt to these absences quickly.
