Jalen Hurts Out for Season Due to Blood Clots

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been ruled out for the remainder of the season following the discovery of blood clots in his lungs, as announced by the team on Monday.

His condition is stable, and he does not face significant functional limitations. Hurts is undergoing treatment for deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, which requires him to avoid contact activities while on blood thinners. The team expects a full recovery without long-term effects.

Initially diagnosed with superficial clots in his left calf after a game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on October 11, further tests revealed the more serious condition in his lungs. The Eagles indicated that Hurts will remain active with the team and continue conditioning during his treatment.
