Jalen Hurts Throws Friday
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) threw in practice on Friday. Hurts returned from a multi-week absence due to a sprained right shoulder in the Week 18 regular season finale and helped the team to a win over the New York Giants to secure the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs and a first-round bye. He went 20-for-35 for 229 yards, no touchdowns and an interception while also carrying the ball nine times for 13 yards. The Eagles didn't ask the 24-year-old to do too much, but hopefully he's closer to 100 percent when the team takes the field again in the Divisional Round next weekend. Hurts was the most valuable fantasy QB when he was healthy during the regular season, but he'll be a bit more risky in playoff leagues while still recovering from his shoulder injury.
Jan 13, 2023 • 5:08 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Officially Active For Week 18
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is active for Week 18 against the New York Giants. Hurts missed the last two weeks but returns for a critical contest in which the Eagles need a win to secure the NFC's No. 1 seed. It sounds like the third-year quarterback is near 100 percent this week. As a result, he instantly becomes a high-end QB1 in fantasy football. Fantasy managers should be aware that the Eagles could pull Hurts and other starters if they jump out to a big lead, but even then, Hurts remains a must-start.
Jan 8, 2023 • 7:59 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts To Start In Week 18
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) will suit up for the Week 18 matchup against the New York Giants. He has been limited in practice all week and was listed as questionable coming into this game. Despite that, Hurts will be out there for the first time since suffering a sprained right shoulder in Week 15. The Eagles need to win this game to secure a first-round bye week, so Hurts will need to shake off the rust quickly. The MVP-candidate should be a strong fantasy option against the Giants backups as they plan to rest a majority of their starters.
Jan 7, 2023 • 11:32 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Officially Questionable For Week 18
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is officially listed as questionable to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the New York Giants on Sunday. Hurts was limited in practice this week and appears to be on the right track to playing for the first time since spraining his right shoulder in Week 15. If the 24-year-old doesn't get the green light, backup Gardner Minshew would make his third straight start. However, in a game the Eagles need to win in order to secure the top overall seed in the NFL playoff picture and a first-round bye, we suspect that Hurts will be out there. If he's on the field, the MVP candidate is a must-start in single-season championship matchups, although he could be shaking off some rust and is unlikely to see many designed runs.
Jan 6, 2023 • 10:00 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts "Trending In The Right Direction" To Start In Week 18
Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is "trending in the right direction" towards starting versus the New York Giants. He was a limited participant in practice this week and is on track to start Sunday's game against the Giants. The 24-year-old has missed the last two games due to a right shoulder sprain. He has been terrific this season, throwing for 3,472 yards, 22 touchdowns, and five interceptions while rushing for 747 yards and 13 scores over 14 games in 2022. Hurts remains an elite option for the regular season finale against a Giants team that will most likely rest some of their key defensive starters.
Jan 6, 2023 • 3:41 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Remains Limited On Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) was limited in practice for the second day in a row. Despite Hurts being limited, it sounds like he'll likely be on the field for the Week 18 matchup against the New York Giants. He is taking first-time reps and is trending towards suiting up for this game. Although, fantasy managers should check back on Friday for another update on his status. The 24-year-old could be a bit rusty after not playing for a few weeks. Despite that, Hurts will remain a strong fantasy option against a Giants team that will likely be resting most of their key starters.
Jan 5, 2023 • 11:16 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Expected To Be Available For Week 18
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is not going to suit up for the Week 17 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. However, the MVP-candidate could get back on the field for the Week 18 matchup against the New York Giants. Although, Philly would secure the No. 1 seed with a win over New Orleans. In that event, it's unlikely that the Eagles would deploy Hurts for the regular season finale. It sounds like Hurts is doing well though, so he'll most likely be available if needed for Week 18. This is good news for fantasy managers who are playing for something in Week 18. Although, we'll have to wait and see what happens during their matchup with the Saints this weekend.
Jan 1, 2023 • 2:38 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Could Play In Week 18
If the Philadelphia Eagles win in Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints and clinch the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs, quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) could play in Week 18 against the New York Giants to make sure he's not idle for more than a month heading into their first playoff game. Hurts is doubtful to play this Sunday, but sources said he made significant strides in practice and the team is confident he'll return in the short term. Fantasy managers playing for a title this week won't have the 24-year-old MVP candidate, but if you're still playing for something in Week 18, you may get lucky and get him back. However, there's also a very real possibility that Hurts doesn't even play a full game if he's active in the regular season finale. That's why most fantasy leagues usually end in the second-to-last week of the regular season.
Dec 31, 2022 • 1:16 AM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Doubtful For Week 17
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) was limited in practice on Thursday and Friday, but he'll head into the Week 17 game on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints with a doubtful tag. It shouldn't come as much of a surprise to fantasy managers after Hurts sprained his right shoulder in Week 15. This will be his second straight game on the sidelines. However, there's a chance he could play in Week 18 in the regular season finale if the Eagles have yet to clinch the NFC East division and a first-round bye in the playoffs. Backup Gardner Minshew is in line to make his second straight start in place of Hurts, and he'll be on the QB1/2 borderline after throwing for 355 yards and accounting for three TDs in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
Dec 30, 2022 • 8:13 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Does Some Throwing Thursday
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) was seen doing some throwing at the start of Thursday's practice. It's more than Hurts did last week, but there's still a chance he'll be listed as a non-participant on Thursday's final injury report after he was a DNP on Wednesday. The 24-year-old is dealing with a sprained right shoulder and missed the Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Although the Eagles have yet to lock up a first-round bye and home-field advantage in the NFC postseason, they could very well err on the side of caution and hold Hurts out for a second straight game this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Check back later for Hurts' official practice status. If he doesn't get cleared this weekend, Gardner Minshew will have plenty of QB2 upside in what would be his second start of the year.
Dec 29, 2022 • 7:16 PM | RotoBallerNo Practice For Jalen Hurts Wednesday
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) missed the team's walkthrough practice on Wednesday. Hurts sprained his right shoulder in Week 15 and was held out of the Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles still have not locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC, but Hurts could easily miss his second straight game this weekend against the New Orleans Saints if the team doesn't think he's ready. As of now, fantasy managers shouldn't expect the 24-year-old MVP front-runner to play this Sunday. Backup Gardner Minshew stepped in seamlessly for the Eagles under center last Saturday and contributed over 300 yards passing and three total touchdowns. He'll be firmly in play as a QB2 in superflex leagues yet again if he makes another start.
Dec 28, 2022 • 10:04 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Unlikely To Play In Week 17?
ESPN.com's Dan Graziano doesn't think the Philadelphia Eagles gave any real consideration to let quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) play in Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys, and Graziano would be surprised if Hurts plays in Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints. The real decision could end up being whether to let him play in Week 18 against the New York Giants so that he hasn't had five weeks off before the Divisional round of the playoffs (assuming they secure a first-round bye in the NFC). The Eagles seem to believe they'll get Hurts back before their first playoff game, but they still aren't sure about the extent to which the injury will affect him once he returns. Fantasy managers hoping to have the MVP front-runner available this weekend shouldn't get their hopes up. It will probably be Gardner Minshew Mania for at least another week.
Dec 28, 2022 • 5:45 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Will Try To Play Against The Saints
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is considered day-to-day. Hurts wasn't expected to be on the field until the postseason to give him time to recover from a sprained SC joint. However, with Philly dropping a critical game to the Cowboys on Christmas Eve, the signal-caller will push to make it back for the Week 17 meeting with the New Orleans Saints. That said, fantasy managers should keep Gardner Minshew on the roster, at least for now. Although Minshew threw two interceptions in the loss to Dallas, he managed to put together a 355-yard, two-touchdown effort, so he has some fantasy value if Hurts can't go on New Year's Day.
Dec 25, 2022 • 5:30 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Uncertain For Week 17 As Well
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) is sidelined for Saturday's meeting against Dallas. However, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter, there's concern that the signal-caller won't be available in Week 17 versus the New Orleans Saints either. ESPN's Stephania Bell also chimed in on Schefter's update, reporting that the team may take a "conservative" approach regarding Hurts' return due to the nature of his injury, meaning it's certainly possible he won't be back until the postseason. Fortunately, Philly has Gardner Minshew to handle things under center moving ahead. While Minshew isn't as talented as Hurts, he's someone to consider for those looking to fill a void at the position, especially with so many quarterbacks around the league dealing with injuries.
Dec 24, 2022 • 5:45 AM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Will Miss Week 16
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) will miss the Week 16 game against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Saturday after he sprained his right shoulder in the Week 15 win over the Chicago Bears. The Eagles announced on Thursday that backup Gardner Minshew will make his first start of the year. If this was the postseason, Hurts would likely battle through it and play. But it's not and the Eagles want the MVP candidate to be healthy entering the playoffs, so there's a chance he could also miss Week 17 if they feel he's not ready. It's terrible timing for those in the fantasy playoffs, but you'll have to pivot and look elsewhere at the QB position. Minshew fared well in his two starts for Philly in 2021 and has plenty of weapons to turn in a decent QB2 performance in superflex leagues in Week 16.
Dec 22, 2022 • 5:17 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Misses Wednesday's Practice
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) wasn't at practice on Wednesday. The superstar quarterback suffered a sprained throwing shoulder last week in the win over the Chicago Bears. Despite the injury, Hurts had 315 passing yards in the win, his fourth game this year with over 300 yards passing. However, the superstar quarterback hasn't been ruled out for this week's NFC East showdown against the Dallas Cowboys. While Hurts has a chance to play, it's unlikely that he will suit up in Week 16. Replacing him will be former Jacksonville Jaguars starter, Gardner Minshew. Fantasy players who need a replacement can add Minshew off the waiver wire and start him against the Cowboys.
Dec 21, 2022 • 7:26 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Listed As DNP On Tuesday
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) was listed as a DNP on Tuesday's estimated practice report. Backup Gardner Minshew was also a DNP due to a personal issue. Hurts sprained his right shoulder in the Week 15 win over the Chicago Bears and is up in the air to face the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday in Week 16. The Eagles are saying he has a chance to play, but the MVP candidate is very iffy for fantasy managers this week and possibly in Week 17 as well. We'll have a better idea of his Week 16 status after two more practice days, but fantasy managers need to have an alternate plan at QB this week. If Hurts is unable to play against Dallas, Minshew would get the start and be in play in two-QB superflex leagues.
Dec 20, 2022 • 10:06 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Not Being Ruled Out For Week 16
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) does have a chance to play in Week 16 against the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday, so head coach Nick Sirianni said on Tuesday that he will get both Hurts and backup Gardner Minshew ready this week. "There's a chance he could play this week. He's one of the toughest guys I know. His body is not like yours or mine. He heals fast. I will not rule him out. I will not put a timetable on him. We'll see what happens," Sirianni said. The 24-year-old Hurts is dealing with a right shoulder sprain, so there's still a pretty good chance it will be Minshew under center in a big divisional clash this weekend. Fantasy managers need to prepare a backup plan at QB in case Hurts is inactive. We'll have a better idea of his status on Thursday.
Dec 20, 2022 • 7:00 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts' Status For Week 16 Remains Uncertain
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (shoulder) suffered an injury late in their victory over the Bears on Sunday. After the game, reports emerged that the 24-year-old could miss the next two or three weeks. While it seems unlikely he'll play on Saturday against the Cowboys, head coach Nick Sirianni was not prepared to rule him out. On Tuesday, he described their young superstar as "attacking his rehab," stating, "we'll see what happens this week," but did confirm it's "not something we deem long term." The Eagles only need to win one of their final three games to clinch the No. 1 seed and a first-round bye, so there is no reason for them to rush him back this week. Gardner Minshew will serve as the team's starter if Hurts is out, which would be a downgrade for the offense and their playmakers.
Dec 20, 2022 • 2:27 PM | RotoBallerJalen Hurts Could Miss Next Two Games With Sprained Shoulder
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback and MVP candidate Jalen Hurts (shoulder) could miss the team's next two games due to a sprained right shoulder that he suffered in the Week 15 win over the Chicago Bears, according to NFL sources. It's also possible that he doesn't play in the final three regular season games and for another month until the divisional round of the postseason. Hurts was injured late in the third quarter on Sunday and is now highly unlikely to play in Week 16 against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Saturday. What a terrible time to lose the overall QB2 in fantasy this year with the semifinals and finals coming up the next two weeks in most fantasy leagues. Fantasy managers that have been riding Hurts' breakout season in 2022 will have to go in another direction moving forward. In Philly, Gardner Minshew will take over the offense for however long Hurts is out.
