Jalen hurts his knee: I finished the game

The Eagles are headed to the NFC Championship Game and the days leading up to the game will be filled with a lot of discussion about Jalen Hurts’ knee.

Hurts went to the medical tent after injuring his left knee early in the second half, but the running back returned without a single offensive snap in the Eagles’ 28-22 victory. Hurts, who opened the scoring with a 44-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, appeared to be affected by the injury after returning to the game, but did not say much about the nature of the injury when NBC’s Melissa Stark asked how much it bothered him after the game.

“I finished the game,” Hurts said.

He didn’t have much more to say when asked how he thought the injury would affect his preparation for the commanders.

“I’m sure they’ll ask me about it later,” Hurts said. “I don’t know if I can answer right away. But I’m going to enjoy this win with my teammates.”

There will be more on Hurts’ condition in postgame press conferences and media availability throughout the week.
