Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is reportedly questionable for Monday night’s game against the Seattle Seahawks due to an illness, according to an Associated Press source.
The Eagles have not officially confirmed the report, but it is believed that Hurts is dealing with a stomach bug. The team has not yet announced who will start in his place if he is unable to play.
Hurts has been a bright spot for the Eagles this season, leading the team to a 3-4-1 record while throwing for 1,062 yards and six touchdowns. He has also rushed for 464 yards and four touchdowns.
The Eagles have struggled to find consistency at the quarterback position since Carson Wentz was traded to the Indianapolis Colts in the offseason. Hurts has been a spark of life for the team, but his absence could be a major blow to their playoff chances.
The Seahawks are currently 5-3 and in second place in the NFC West. They have been one of the most consistent teams in the NFL this season and will be looking to take advantage of any weaknesses the Eagles may have.
It remains to be seen if Hurts will be able to play on Monday night, but it is certainly a situation worth monitoring. If he is unable to go, the Eagles will need someone else to step up and lead them to victory.
