Jalen Hurts Placed on Injured Reserve With Blood Clots in Calf
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is sidelined indefinitely with blood clots in his calf and has been placed on injured reserve, potentially missing the remainder of the season.
Amarillo, TX, October 19, 2026 —
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been placed on injured reserve after developing blood clots in his calf. He is sidelined indefinitely and could miss the remainder of the season.
The available information does not specify when Hurts was placed on injured reserve, when the blood clots were identified, or how his condition will be monitored. It also does not provide a timetable for his return. The possibility that he could miss the rest of the season remains uncertain; the reported status is indefinite.
No details were provided about the circumstances surrounding the diagnosis, the treatment plan, or any medical assessment of his recovery. The information also does not identify who will take over at quarterback for Philadelphia while Hurts is unavailable. Those details cannot be confirmed from the information available.
Hurts’ placement on injured reserve means he is not available to play while he remains on that list. The duration of his absence, however, has not been established in the information provided. The season-ending possibility is described as potential, not confirmed.
For now, the reported facts are limited to Hurts’ calf blood clots, his indefinite absence and his placement on injured reserve. No further update on his status or the team’s plans was included. Any change to his availability would depend on information not provided in the current account.
