Eagles QB Jalen Hurts
NFL Investigating Blood Clot Diagnosis
Published
The NFL has confirmed they’re launching an investigation into Jalen Hurts‘ medical care and blood clot diagnosis … after the player was sidelined for the rest of the season.
The league confirmed the probe into about how the Philadelphia Eagles handled the diagnosis in a joint statement with the National Football League Players Association Sunday.
Their statement reads … “The NFL and NFL Players Association are working together to review the matter.”
The investigation comes after the NFLPA demanded a full inquiry be made by the league into how his medical treatment was handled.
They wrote last week … “Before conclusions are drawn about how this situation was handled, there must be a full investigation into what occurred. Determining the facts is essential to ensuring players receive the highest level of care and protection going forward.”
As you know … Hurts was initially diagnosed with a superficial blood clot in his leg … before the clot spread to his lungs where multiple clots were found.
Hurts is now out for the remainder of the season … and based on what we’re hearing, it’s imperative he stay off the field.
Doctor David Abbasi told Jakson on TMZ’s “In The Know” … the star athlete could be out for 3 to 6 months due to the risk of incurring serious damage from bleeding.
