Eagles QB Jalen Hurts throwing at the start of Thursday’s practice. Will see how much he can do. More than last week, so far.

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.

Hurts missed last Saturday with a sprained shoulder and head coach Nick Sirianni declined to assign a percentage to the likelihood that he will be in the lineup this weekend. He did maintain that Hurts has not been ruled out for the home game.

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.

Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni has not ruled out QB Jalen Hurts for Sunday's game against the Saints.

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.

Eagles star QB Jalen Hurts’ status is in doubt for Saturday’s game against the Cowboys because of a sprained throwing shoulder suffered in the third quarter SundayThe injury isn’t considered long-term.

The Philadelphia Eagles have claimed quarterback Ian Book, according to Field Yates of ESPN. Book was a New Orleans Saints fourth-round draft pick out of Notre Dame in 2021. He appeared in one game in 2021 as a rookie, a 20-3 loss to the Miami Dolphins in which he completed 12 of 20 pass attempts for 135 yards, with 2 INTs.

The Eagles recently released Reid Sinnett and Carson Strong, so Book will slide in as the team's third QB behind Hurts and Minshew.

Jalen Hurts is set to start at quarterback against Washington on Tuesday night.

Hurts did not play in Week 13 because of an ankle injury and was limited in practice early last week.

But as the story said, he began working in full as the week went on and the two extra days to prepare for the game leave him on track to play. The Eagles did not give Hurts any injury designation for the game.

It's all a mess for Philly coming out of their bye. Friday's final injury report will have the best idea of how to tackle the Eagles offense.

The Philadelphia Eagles got a big win over the Jets on Sunday as they head into their late-season bye, and head coach Nick Sirianni spoke to reporters after the game about Jalen Hurts, his injury, and why he’s still the starter when he’s ready to return. He also noted that Gardner Minshew had a good game, their run game is successful because of the offensive line, and Jake Elliott’s consistency makes them comfortable kicking the ball.

Sirianni went on to say Hurts has shown to be one of the best in the league moving around and making plays and when he's healthy, he'll be the starter. Minshew looked good against the struggling Jets and while Hurts has looked good at times, he's also struggled, especially last week against the Giants. The Eagles have a bye in Week 14.
