Jalen Hurts Back in Practice for Eagles vs. Packers Playoff Game

Philadelphia, USAThu Jan 09 2025
Philadelphia Eagles' quarterback Jalen Hurts is making a comeback to practice today, after missing time due to a concussion suffered in Week 16. This is a significant step in his recovery process, as he prepares to lead the team in their upcoming Wild Card playoff game against the Green Bay Packers. Head coach Nick Sirianni confirmed Hurts' return in a press conference, noting that the quarterback will likely be listed as having limited participation. This is a normal part of the concussion protocol, and assuming no setbacks, Hurts is expected to be upgraded to full participation by Thursday. The two-week break has also given Hurts time to heal his injured finger. During this time, he has been actively preparing for the Packers by working on various aspects of his game and self-scouting. While there are no confirmed restrictions for Hurts today, the team will provide a detailed practice report later. For now, it's encouraging to see Hurts back on the field, with all indications suggesting he will be available for the crucial playoff game.
