Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to start Monday night against the Seattle Seahawks after he was downgraded to questionable on Sunday because of an illness, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Hurts, whose illness had worsened overnight Saturday into Sunday, traveled to Seattle separately from the team to try to avoid getting anyone else sick.
Hurts' chances of playing in Seattle were improved by the flexing of Eagles-Seahawks to "Monday Night Football" instead of the originally scheduled game between the Kansas City Chiefs and New England Patriots.
