Eagles place Jalen Hurts on injured reserve because of blood clot

The Philadelphia Eagles placed quarterback Jalen Hurts on short-term injured reserve on October 16 in Philadelphia after doctors confirmed a superficial blood clot in his calf, sidelining him for at least four games, NBC Sports reported. Hurts had been ruled out of the Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers after the clot moved, prompting the team to consider backup Tanner McKee and other quarterback options. Earlier reports warned the clot could develop into a deep-vein thrombosis, and the Eagles evaluated short-term IR before ultimately making the move.
