The Philadelphia Eagles have made a major change involving quarterback Jalen Hurts. After talking with doctors and medical experts Saturday, the team plans to place Hurts on injured reserve as he deals with a superficial blood clot in his leg, according to reports from ESPN’s Adam Schefter and NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. That means Philadelphia will be without its starting quarterback for at least four games.
