with everything falling apart in Philadelphia, the Eagles sitting at 2-4, Lane Johnson retiring and now the unfortunate news that Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the rest of the season, I think the 49ers need to make an aggressive move and try to capitalize on the situation. John Lynch needs to pick up the phone and see what it would take to get DeVonta Smith. He’s only 28, signed through 2028 and would be a PERFECT fit in Kyle Shanahan’s offense. An excellent route runner who can stretch the field, create separation and give Brock Purdy another legitimate weapon. The Niners desperately need help at WR. I’d offer Philadelphia a 2027 first-round pick and a 2028 third-round pick. That should at least get Howie Roseman’s attention. The Eagles may not want to move him, but given their current situation, it’s worth making the call. the 49ers are built to win NOW. McCaffrey, Kittle and several other key players aren’t getting any younger. This championship window isn’t going to stay open forever. Sometimes you have to stop worrying about tomorrow and go all in on today. I’d make the offer. What say you, 49ers Faithful? @sportslarryk @grantcohn @JohnLynch49ers

Breaking: #Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is out for Sunday due to a superficial blood clot. Full statement from the #Eagles on QB Jalen Hurts:   “On Thursday, October 8th, Jalen visited the training room after practice requesting treatment for his calf. He informed the medical staff he had been cleated during the Rams game on October 4th. This was his first treatment session for the calf injury following the game, after having practiced in full both Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, Jalen received treatment, practiced in full, and was added to the practice report.   “Out of an abundance of caution, an ultrasound was performed on Saturday following the team’s flight to London and walkthrough. The ultrasound revealed a superficial blood clot. Our medical staff and doctors in London reviewed the results and concluded that activity and mobility were important and that Jalen could safely play. Doctors recommended a follow-up ultrasound within 72 hours of the game and the return flight to Philadelphia.    “Jalen played without limitation in the game Sunday, received treatment on Monday and Tuesday, and practiced in full on Wednesday, as reflected in the practice report. Throughout our time in London and this week, we have remained in communication with the league office regarding the matter.     "On Wednesday night, a follow-up ultrasound revealed movement in the small blood clot. Jalen will be out for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers as we determine the appropriate course of treatment. His health and safety are our highest priority.”

When did he say this?
