NFL reportedly will not punish Eagles for their handling of Jalen Hurts' blood clot

Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the 2026 season due to the issue.

The NFL has decided not to punish the Philadelphia Eagles for their handling of quarterback Jalen Hurts' blood clot, according to a report by Yahoo Sports. The league found that the Eagles' decision to allow Hurts to play in Week 5, despite knowing about the clot in his calf, was handled appropriately. This decision comes after Hurts is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season following the discovery of multiple blood clots in his lungs.

The NFL's conclusion suggests that the team's actions did not warrant any form of disciplinary action.
