Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.

In short

Jalen Hurts is a starter at quarterback for PHI — 100% of the snaps in his best week of 5. He has a not stated injury. This week he practised in full, then did not practise. His team has not listed him on the final report. We called him PLAY in week 6 and he did not play.

The reader concurs · grade A

The Eagles' own site reports the team "placed quarterback Jalen Hurts on Injured Reserve due to the superficial blood clot in his calf" on Saturday 17 Oct, the day before this game (P1), and names Tanner McKee as the starter "this Sunday when the Carolina Panthers come to Lincoln Financial Field" (P1). That is the named 18 Oct game, and it is consistent with the Thursday reporting that he "will miss at least Sunday's Week 6 game due to a blood clot in his leg" (P2) and is "out indefinitely" (P3). The SIT call is settled by a club roster move, not an aggregator.

His team's own announcement

This is the TEAM'S OWN ANNOUNCEMENT, not a reading of ours. His team filed him on the injury report and we are restating it so the record is complete. There is nothing early about repeating an announcement — what we say ahead of one is on the week's page. Source: his team's reserve list (injured reserve, PUP, NFI, suspended).
