A superficial blood clot is not even remotely career threatening.It registers at about the same level as an ankle sprain on the medical Richter scale.So you don't think they should do the morally right thing and give him a lifetime contract?

Then Jalen can give himself his own contract. It is the only morally right thing to do.
13 hours ago13 hr I haven't really read too much about the Josh Jacobs case, but it's pretty crazy he's still not playing considering the NFL's previous suspensions for players with similar infractions
12 hours ago12 hr "The ultimate decision about when Hurts returns to play will come from his medical team, and the Eagles are ready to follow his lead. There is still a chance Hurts eventually ends up on IR, if that is the direction the medical information leads them.”

He would be eligible to come back after the bye week, if you delay this and then have to put him on IR, then his season is probably over.I am not his biggest fan, but it just makes no sense to me to delay it.

With as many injuries as they have had already, I think anyone that might make it back in 4 or even 5 weeks should stay off IR if we can manage the roster that way.

What do they do?27-2 is the standard for him to be replaced. Anything short of that the job is Hurts’.

So many variables and unknowns with Hurts and his timeline for return. He could be back next week…could be out all season. Howie and Co are walking the tight rope of the snow balls chance in hell that things turn around. The chances of McKee having a 2013 Foles type run are astronomically low…Hurts at the end of the day, whether you love him, hate him or are just real about who he is, is the best QB as is on the roster.

It has happened and ended others careers. HOWEVER, in no way does that mean the FO needs to honor his remaining contact in any way. I'm sure if the team or league did anything wrong then Jalen and his attorney's can take action receive a settlement. RTK is just a troll and trying to get anyone to argue with him.

Perhaps this is all a sham to see how McKee is with the team and if he improves this offense they trade Hurts?Yes its a joke, have to say that or dopes like RTK will actually take it serious

What do they do?Have Hurts start if he’s just looking above average. If he’s playing 2013 Foles good when he replaced an injured Mike Vick then that’s a different discussion

Other possibility is after 3 weeks if Jalen isn't ready he goes on IR then.

A sinus infection can also erode through the inner table of the skull and cause a fatal meningitis. It doesn't make a sinus infection scary. This is really common, really safe...just not common in athletes. It was handled appropriately. It's going to be fine.

An ankle sprain is a 2-3 week injury. A blood clot could be 2-3 weeks or it could be several months. If they have to put him on blood thinners he will not be able to play football for months because taking a regular hit while on blood thinners could lead to internal bleeding at an incredible rate and DEATH. But yeah, it's the same as an ankle sprain.
