Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is officially out against the Dallas Cowboys for Sunday's Week 17 game. Hurts remains in concussion protocol, meaning Kenny Pickett will be the starter. Eagles fans had their holiday season somewhat spoiled when Hurts exited Philadelphia's Week 16 showdown against the Commanders early after suffering a head injury.

Early in the Philadelphia Eagles ' Week 16 game against the Washington Commanders, quarterback Jalen Hurts scrambled to his left on 2nd-and-20 and was hit between linebackers Frankie Luvu and Bobby Wagner. Although Hurts did get up quickly with help from a teammate, he was instructed by an official to get checked for a concussion.

The Philadelphia Eagles need to keep winning if they hope to secure the top seed in the NFC or even their division title for the time being. But that task might have gotten a bit harder with the latest status update for star quarterback Jalen Hurts.
