What happened: Dr. Allan Sills broke an owners-meeting press session to address the care surrounding Jalen Hurts' blood clot. He rejected the notion external factors swayed league or Eagles physicians and backed the joint medical process.

Why it matters: Hurts is Philadelphia's second-round pick from 2020, 53rd overall out of Oklahoma, now central to the offense. A public defense from the league's top doctor matters because handling questions around a starting quarterback shape trust and availability planning.
