Is there a trust issue between Jalen Hurts and the Eagles?
The Philadelphia Eagles have ruled out franchise quarterback Jalen Hurts for the rest of the 2026 season after a deep‑vein thrombosis in his calf progressed to bilateral pulmonary emboli. While Hurts remains clinically stable and on blood thinners, he cannot engage in contact activities. The decision followed a confusing series of reports about placing him on injured reserve, and highlights tensions over medical handling and a pending contract extension—Hurts' five‑year, $255 million deal runs through 2028 but still lacks a new extension. Sources suggest some close to Hurts are dissatisfied with the Eagles’ response, raising questions about trust between the quarterback and the organization.
Eagles-Panthers Film Review: Sean Mannion should probably be replaced
The author declares the Eagles’ offense a disaster after the loss to the Panthers, urging a change of offensive coordinator Sean Mannian. He criticizes Mannian’s under‑center, outside‑zone scheme and the staff’s protection schemes, noting repeated mis‑assignments that left quarterback Tanner McKee without time and exposed the line. Even against a Panthers defense missing its top cornerbacks and with Jaelan Phillips limited to 28 snaps, the Eagles failed to exploit matchups, leaving fans frustrated. The writer suggests handing play‑calling to Josh Grizzard or head coach Nick Sirianni as a quicker fix.
Jalen Hurts update: Eagles quarterback out for the season
The Philadelphia Eagles announce that starting quarterback Jalen Hurts is out for the rest of the 2026 season after being diagnosed with deep‑vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, following an earlier calf vein clot. Hurts is stable on blood‑thinners and expected to recover fully, but cannot participate in contact football. Backup Tanner McKee steps in as the starter as the Eagles sit 2‑4 and face a challenging stretch. The team and Hurts’ agent confirmed the diagnosis and optimistic prognosis in a joint statement.
Eagles News: “This offense is such a trainwreck”
The Philadelphia Eagles' offense has derailed, posting the lowest EPA per drive and success rate among 27 teams since 2000 through Week 6. Averaging just 14.6 points and 219 yards per game during a four‑game losing streak, the unit struggles despite scoring two touchdowns in the recent loss to the Carolina Panthers. Injuries to key players like Jalen Hurts, Landon Dickerson and Saquon Barkley compound the issue, but analysts blame coaching, particularly first‑year offensive coordinator Sean Mannor and head coach Nick Sirianni, for a confused, ineffective scheme. With quarterback Tanner McKee now leading the offense and the future of the coaching staff in doubt, the Eagles face a bleak outlook for the season.
Eagles reportedly wanted to bring Andy Dalton back but he declined [UPDATE]
The Philadelphia Eagles, scrambling for quarterback depth after Jalen Hurts' blood‑clot issue, tried to re‑sign veteran Andy Dalton, but he politely declined. Dalton, who was released after a brief, error‑prone stint and now turns 39, has agreed to join the Atlanta Falcons. Meanwhile, the Eagles added practice‑squad QB Joe Milton III and have rookie Cole Payton as their No. 2, leaving their long‑term QB solution uncertain as they head into a challenging season.

Eagles vs. Panthers: The good, the bad, and the ugly
The Philadelphia Eagles fall to the Carolina Panthers 25-14, extending their losing streak to four games and dropping to 2-4 on the season. Rookie quarterback Tanner McKee throws for 215 yards and one TD, while Bryce Young shines for Carolina with 281 yards and two scores. Injuries sap the Eagles’ pass rush, leaving only rookie edge rusher Keyshawn James‑Newby on the field after Nolan Smith’s concussion. Despite a late DeVonta Smith 19‑yard TD and a clutch tackle by Jeremiah Trotter Jr., the offense sputters, passing on the first 10 plays and failing to establish the run. Coach Nick Sirianni faces mounting pressure as fans watch empty seats fill Lincoln Financial Field.
Eagles-Panthers final score: Philadelphia loses fourth straight game in very boring fashion
The Philadelphia Eagles fall to the Carolina Panthers 25-14 on Oct. 18, extending their losing streak to four games. Backup quarterback Tanner McKee replaces Jalen Hurts and struggles, being sacked on the opening drive and throwing multiple interceptions, while the offense sputters with three punts in the first quarter. The Panthers capitalize on solid defense and a 47‑yard field goal, then pull away in the second half as the Eagles’ injuries mount and the coaching staff draws criticism. The Eagles head into a Monday Night showdown with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7.

Carson Steele injury: Eagles RB ruled out against Panthers [UPDATE]
Carson Steele, who was added to the Eagles’ active roster last week, is now ruled out after a shoulder injury suffered in the first quarter of the Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Steele caught a short pass from Tanner McKee, was pushed out of bounds, and after a brief return on special teams he had to leave again and was classified as out. His absence deepens an already thin backfield — Saquon Barkley is injured, Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley are on IR, leaving Dameon Pierce as the starter with Steele and Jaydon Blue as the only backups.
Another Eagles edge rusher goes down with an injury
Eagles OLB Nolan Smith Jr. leaves the Week 6 matchup against the Panthers with a diagnosed concussion, ending his game after three tackles and a sack on the opening drive. Smith joins a depleted pass rush already missing Jalyx Hunt and A.J. Epenesa, leaving only Jonathan Greenard, Arnold Ebiketie and practice‑squad call‑up Keyshawn James‑Newby to carry the load. The loss underscores Philadelphia’s mounting injury woes on defense as the team heads into the next contest.
