The Philadelphia Eagles have been without starting quarterback Jalen Hurts, who suffered a concussion in Week 16 of the regular season.
But after more than two weeks in concussion protocol, it looks like Hurts will be available for the Eagles' playoff run.
Head coach Nick Sirianni gave a quick and promising update ahead of the Eagles' Wednesday practice as they get ready to take on the Green Bay Packers.
“He’ll be out there today, Sirianni said. “We’ll get you the injury report after practice. We’ll see how it goes. But we’ll get you the injury report after practice today.”
Sirianni held back from sharing more details on whether or not Hurts has officially been cleared from concussion protocol, though he did admit he was far from worried about their QB1 looking rusty after missing the last two games.
“This is why you practice,” Sirianni said. “This is why you got through the process of practicing and all the things that you do in practice to get on the same page to do everything there. We feel like we practice at a very high-intensity level. This is why you go out there and do these things.”
The Eagles are scheduled to practice at 3:35 p.m. ET at Lincoln Financial Field.
The injury update should be released closer to 6:00 p.m. ET.
