It seems like Jalen Hurts, the Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback, missed a practice due to illness, but the absence is considered precautionary, and he is still expected to play in the upcoming Monday Night Football matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The report suggests that Hurts was not listed on the injury report earlier in the week, and his absence from practice is to prevent the potential spread of illness to other team members.

To turn the Eagles’ offense around, Jalen Hurts needs to address this specific problem.

Hurts, who was the runner-up for the NFL MVP last season, has been a key player for the Eagles, contributing both through passing and rushing. Despite the team’s recent losses to the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys, Hurts is anticipated to be in action against the Seahawks, aiming to help the Eagles break their two-game losing streak.

In the event that Hurts cannot play, the Eagles have Marcus Mariota as their backup, a veteran quarterback with nine years of NFL experience. However, the report suggests that it is likely that Hurts will be on the field in Seattle, providing a boost to the defending NFC champions as they try to halt their late-season downturn. The game is scheduled to kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday at Lumen Field.
