From the notes: Jalen Hurts saw a specialist Friday in Boston for his blood clot issue Via @JFowlerESPN on X

What happened: Per Fowler's Week 7 notes, Friday's Boston visit was the latest evaluation step for the blood clot. The clot had already sidelined the quarterback from game action.

Why it matters: Philadelphia's offense has continued preparations without its starting quarterback during the absence. The handling of the absence drew an NFLPA review push.

By the numbers: In 2025 with Philadelphia, Hurts completed 294 of 454 passes for 3,224 yards with 25 touchdowns and 6 interceptions across 16 games.

What to watch: Philadelphia's next official status update will clarify the quarterback plan.
