Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is set to miss the rest of the season after further testing revealed blood clots had traveled from his leg to his lungs, the team announced on Monday.
Hurts’s condition is considered stable and he “has no significant functional limitations,” the team said. His treatment for a new diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli will involve blood thinners, during which time he is unable to participate in contact activities.
