Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has worn a brace on his left leg in recent weeks without missing any time, but it looked like that might change after he took a shot to his left knee in the second quarter of Sunday’s game against the Cowboys.

Hurts stayed down before making his way off the field, but he was back at it in the third quarter.

It was a concerning scene for a while after Hurts went down and Mariotta started warming up. Mariotta struggled in the preseason, so much so many who follow the team wondered if he'd even survive cuts. McKee is the team's QB3. Hurts ended up not missing a play but appeared to limp at times. The story added after the game, Hurts was asked about his knee but continued to avoid any specific discussion of what might be ailing him. He said he’s looking forward to some extra time off this week, as the Eagles have a bye in Week 10.

Hurts was one of the last out of the locker room after halftime and reports said Mariota was close to getting ready to enter the game. Hurts was seen limping after the game but the QB played off the injury during his postgame press conference and says he'll be fine. It was a season-low for rushing yards for Hurts as well. It will be worth monitoring heading into Week 8, which is an early Sunday game against the Commanders.

The Eagles and Jalen Hurts agreed to terms on a 5-year, $255M contract extension that makes him the highest-paid player in NFL history. The deal includes $179.304M in guarantees and a no-trade clause.

Hurts will continue his career in one of the best-run franchises in the NFL. Looking at his situation long-term, the offensive line is aging, but with the team's propensity to restock in the trenches, that is likely to be taken care of soon. Hurts will remain a top fantasy QB for years to come.

It looks like we're going to have to wait this one out. Minshew could operate as a fringe QB1, but clearly, we would all rather have the ceiling of Jalen Hurts at our disposal in the most critical fantasy week of the season. We'll keep you updated.

Minshew looked great in Week 16 but fantasy drafters who took Hurts aren't very concerned about that. Hurts would be a must-start in Championship Week if he's a full go but we'll need more positive reports on Friday and Saturday before that's a sure thing.

The Eagles kick off their practice week on Wednesday without a clear view of quarterback Jalen Hurts‘ chances of playing against the Saints.

Sirianni said 'of course' Hurts has a chance to play this week. Hurts' timeline has been all over the place. Some are reporting he may not be healthy even for the playoffs while this report doesn't rule him out from playing this week. The Eagles need one more win to clinch home field advantage in the NFC as well as win the division. They get the Saints at home this week and the Giants in Week 18.

Minshew racked up the fantasy numbers but did have some costly turnovers. The Eagles need one more win to clinch the top seed as well as the division and this week they have a home game against the Saints, which could mean Hurts either pushes to play or the team feels the urgency to get him back under center. Hurts will likely need to log some practice time this week so we'll keep an eye on his status.

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said he does not expect QB Jalen Hurts to play Saturday vs. the Cowboys.

This is a bummer not just because of it's obvious awful fantasy implications, but also for Hurts' MVP bid. His health is clearly more important than any of those things, so it will be Gardner Minshew for Week 16. Minshew has only attempted four passes this year but went 19-of-33 in last year's Week 18 battle against the Cowboys, with a 186-2-1 stat line.

“He sprained his shoulder . . . he is attacking his rehab. We’ll see what happens this week . . . not something we deem long term,” HC Nick Sirianni said about QB Jalen Hurts.

Hurts hasn't been ruled out yet, although as the story pointed out, there have already been huge swings in the betting line for the game. Hurts was able to finish last week's game and actually played very well in the second half to help lead the Eagles to the win. Minshew would get the start if Hurts is ruled out.
