Jalen Hurts is unlikely to play another game for the Philadelphia Eagles this NFL season.

The quarterback has been diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary embolism. However, according to his agent, the prospects for a full recovery are "very good."

The 2025 Super Bowl MVP is now being treated with blood thinners. "During this time, he is not permitted to participate in any contact activities, including football," the Eagles stated.

A return to the field is only possible once Hurts can stop taking the blood thinners. Until then, the quarterback is only allowed to complete conditioning training.

For now, Tanner McKee will take over the Eagles' offense.
