Eagles coach defends handling of Jalen Hurts' blood clots diagnosis: What to know

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni defended the team's handling of Jalen Hurts' medical condition at a press conference on Monday, where he faced questions about the team's decision to play him on Oct. 11 despite knowing he had a blood clot and was on limited rest.
Hurts, 28, will not be able to participate in football activities while he is on blood thinner medications to treat blood clots in both his lungs, the team said in a joint statement with Hurts' agent Monday.
The statement did not provide a timeline for the Super Bowl-winning quarterback's return to the field.
