NFL Defends Eagles' Handling of Jalen Hurts Injury

The NFL and NFL Players Association are working together to review the handling of Jalen Hurts' blood clot diagnosis, following an investigation request by the union. Dr. Allen Sills initially defended the Eagles' medical staff, but the NFLPA expressed doubt and called for a thorough review under the Collective Bargaining Agreement. The investigation has begun with no set timeline for completion, raising questions about the timing of medical screenings during the team's London trip and the protocols followed by the Eagles. Hurts is on injured reserve and expected to miss the rest of the season due to deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli. Commissioner Roger Goodell welcomed the investigation, stating that league protocols were followed appropriately. The review aims to address concerns about the handling of Hurts' medical situation and ensure proper procedures moving forward. ```
