Philadelphia Eagles Quarterback Status In Doubt For Week 16
The Philadelphia Eagles racked up yet another victory in Week 15, this time taking down the Chicago Bears to get their season record to 13-1, and with a playoff spot racked up, they now have a decision to make ahead of their NFC East matchup with Dallas this coming Sunday, as Quarterback Jalen Hurts status has suddenly come into doubt.
He hurt his throwing shoulder during the win when he was taken down by bears defensive end Trevis Gipson, and given the magnitude of the Eagles ambitions in 2022, there's a very good chance that they take the cautious approach by starting Gardner Minshew and allowing Hurts to recover.
In 2022, Hurts has become a front runner for MVP given his stellar play with both his arm and his legs, limiting turnover worth plays to numbers of 4,219 All-Purpose yards, 22 Touchdowns and 5 Interceptions, with an extra 13 scores on the ground, so the Eagles have a very interesting decision to make in the coming days.Eagles QB and MVP candidate Jalen Hurts is uncertain to play Saturday vs. the Cowboys due to a sprained shoulder that he suffered during Sunday's win over the Bears, per league sources.
