Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been cleared from the NFL concussion protocol and is set to lead his team in the NFC wild-card game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Hurts, who had been sidelined since suffering a concussion in a game against Washington on December 22, returned to practice this week, signaling his readiness for the postseason.
The Eagles, who are the NFC East champions with a record of 14-3, are now close to full strength with Hurts back in the lineup. The team had backup quarterbacks Kenny Pickett and Tanner McKee fill in during Hurts' absence, leading them to victories in the final two games of the regular season.
