Eagles QB Jalen Hurts drops another hint about his mysterious injury

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts suggested Wednesday he is still dealing with some sort of injury, even though details remain scarce.

Hurts was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice, and the Eagles quarterback attributed that to a “mini-program” he is on to address a lower body issue.

There does not appear to be any concern that Hurts will not be ready for Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams, and that the plan is for him to be a full practice participant going forward.

There remains some mystery over just how much of an issue Hurts’ injury is. Coach Nick Sirianni seemingly let it slip roughly two weeks ago, and it was later confirmed that Hurts has been dealing with an ankle issue for a few weeks. That still seems to be the case.

Whatever Hurts is dealing with has not shown up in his play in a noticeable way. He went 18-of-28 for 221 yards with a rushing touchdown in last Thursday’s 26-18 win over Washington.
