Jalen Hurts will miss the game against the Cowboys as he remains in concussion protocol, leaving Kenny Pickett to start in his place
Philadelphia: So, the Eagles are going to be without their star quarterback Jalen Hurts this Sunday against the Cowboys. He’s still in concussion protocol after taking a hard hit last week.
Kenny Pickett, the backup, is stepping in. He’s been nursing a rib injury but practiced fully on Thursday. He seems ready to go and is feeling good about the game.
Pickett mentioned he’s been working hard to stay prepared. He’s excited for the chance to lead the team and is focused on getting that win.
The Eagles are in a good spot, sitting at 12-3. If they can pull off a win or even a tie against the Cowboys, they’ll clinch the NFC East title. If not, they might still get some help from the Commanders losing to the Falcons.
It’s been a while since Hurts missed a game, so this is a big deal for the team. They’ve got some adjustments to make, but it sounds like Pickett is ready to take on the challenge.
