  "account": "Jalen Hurts paid a visit to the Philadelphia Eagles’ practice facility on Wednesday as he continues his recovery from blood clots, according to ESPN’s Tim McManus. The Philadelphia Eagles find themselves at a challenging juncture, having lost six consecutive games and currently sitting at a 2-6 record. During his visit, Hurts attended team meetings but did not engage in discussions with the group. Some players had not seen him since he went on injured reserve, and his presence seemed to boost morale among the staff. Hurts remains on injured reserve, with ESPN and NFL Network reporting that he is expected to miss the remainder of the 2026 season. The Eagles and Hurts' agent, Nicole Lynn, announced in an Oct. 19 statement that further tests revealed deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, or blood clots in both lungs. They assured that Hurts was in stable condition with no anticipated long-term effects from the condition. The team's treatment plan involved blood thinners while prohibiting contact activities. Hurts could potentially remain engaged with the team and continue conditioning while recovering. The Eagles and Lynn anticipate that Hurts will have the chance to resume contact football once he is off blood thinners. In the absence of Hurts, Joe Milton III is set to step into the quarterback role against the New York Giants, reports suggest. Milton joined the Eagles from Dallas' practice squad on Oct. 16 and will replace Tanner McKee. McKee had been starting the past three games, including a 27-10 loss at Washington earlier.",
