Eagles QB Jalen Hurts Doubtful for Saturday vs. Cowboys

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is doubtful for Saturday’s matchup with the Dallas Cowboys, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

If you kept up with the game’s spread throughout the afternoon, it was clear that something like this was coming. The Cowboys steamed from -1.5 all the way to -5.5 on Monday, leaving most wondering if there was some injury suffered by Jalen Hurts. Reports stated that the quarterback received an X-ray following the win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday, and we’re now hearing that he’s likely out for the Christmas Eve matchup with the Dallas Cowboys. It leaves Gardner Minshew as the team’s signal-caller this weekend, who will make his first start of the season.

In 2022, Hurts has completed 67.3 percent of his passes for 3,472 yards, 22 touchdowns, and five interceptions in 14 starts. He has also attempted 156 rushes for 747 yards and 13 rushing touchdowns on the year.
