Jalen Hurts Suffers Potential Concussion in Eagles’ Game Against Washington Commanders

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts experienced an injury scare during the team’s Week 11 matchup against the Washington Commanders on November 14, 2024. Late in the first half, Hurts headed to the medical tent after going face-first into the turf, prompting concerns of a potential concussion.

According to reports, Hurts was evaluated by an independent neurologist while in the medical tent. Despite the initial concern, he later emerged and jogged to the locker room at halftime, indicating that he might be cleared to return to the game[2][3].

Prior to the game, Hurts was not listed on the injury report, and it was anticipated that he would play without any issues. However, this unexpected development has raised concerns about his availability for the remainder of the game and potentially beyond[1].

The Eagles, who are currently on a five-game winning streak, are in a critical NFC East showdown against the Commanders. The outcome of this game is crucial for playoff positioning, and Hurts’ health is a key factor in the team’s success.
