Eagles' Jalen Hurts dealing with mild knee injury following Week 7 win
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts suffered a knee injury during the team's Week 7 victory over the Miami Dolphins but is not expected to miss any games.
What It Means:
Hurts emerged from the locker room after half time with a knee brace and while ESPN's Tim McManus noted that the star quarterback appeared to be in some discomfort after the game, Hurts himself told members of the media that he will "be fine." Fantasy managers will want to monitor the Eagles' injury reports this week to make sure their top-notch starter gets the go-ahead for the team's Week 8 tilt against the Washington Commanders.
Even while dealing with a knee injury, Hurts rushed 11 times for 21 yards and a touchdown against the Dolphins and didn't appear to be too bothered by the injury during the game. With another 25-point fantasy outing under his belt, Hurts is currently ranked as the overall QB2 in fantasy football.
