this is just so terrible for a rookie… and he hasn’t been in single digits (PPR) this year.. 🤡 🤡

The NFL and the Philadelphia Eagles almost killed Jalen Hurts for a Week 5 international showcase. ​The full details of what happened behind closed doors in London just surfaced, and the negligence is staggering. ​Before kickoff in London, Hurts was in a hospital bed until 4:00 AM undergoing emergency vascular testing. Medical staff instructed him not to sleep because sleep was considered an active health risk. ​Instead of shutting down their $255 million franchise quarterback, the team cleared him to play 60 minutes of brutal, high-impact collision football on zero sleep. ​Then, they loaded him onto a pressurized, 8-hour transatlantic flight back to Philadelphia. ​Every doctor on the planet knows that long-haul flights and cabin pressure are the exact triggers that cause lower-extremity blood clots to break free. The Eagles spent days assuring the public it was just a "minor, superficial calf clot". ​Now the truth comes out: the clot dislodged, shot through his bloodstream, and caused multiple pulmonary emboli in his lungs. ​Hurts is officially out for the season, placed on blood thinners where taking a single routine tackle could cause a fatal internal hemorrhage. ​He isn't just lucky to play football again, he is lucky to be alive. ​When the NFL preaches "player safety," remember this moment. They ran a human being into the ground for television ratings in the UK, almost lost him to a preventable medical catastrophe, and cratered their entire season in the process. ​Who inside that building signed off on letting him play and board that flight?
