Jalen Hurts is back in the game, according to an update.
In the fourth quarter, the Eagles trail the San Francisco 49ers 35-13, and they might not have their starting quarterback available as they attempt to pull off another upset.
Jalen Hurts, the quarterback, is under evaluation for a possible head injury and is therefore in the concussion protocol. As a result, his return date is uncertain. During the Eagles’ defensive play in the third quarter, Hurts entered the blue medical tent and was examined by trainers. Hurts jogged into the locker room after a few minutes in the tent.
Hurts completed 17 of his 29 passes for 196 yards passing before exiting the game. He also gained 17 yards and a touchdown on the ground.
The Eagles are depending on backup quarterback Marcus Mariota to spearhead the offense while Hurts is in the locker room. Mariota struggled in the preseason and has not played in any games this year.
