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.
