With Jalen Hurts’ health in question, Eagles need to worry about more than passing game

Nick Sirianni corrected the phrasing.

A reporter asked the head coach how his Philadelphia Eagles responded after losing franchise quarterback Jalen Hurts to a concussion.

Hurts sustained a concussion in the first quarter of a 36-33 loss to the Washington Commanders on Sunday, leaving Kenny Pickett to play relief after just four passes.

“What about adjusting on the fly when Kenny comes in?” the reporter asked. “Because he’s obviously a much different quarterback than Jalen as far as being a plus-one [able to pass and run].”

Sirianni didn’t touch the end of the query.
