Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is expected to miss the rest of the season after doctors found blood clots in his leg and lungs, according to an AP source cited by PBS NewsHour.

PBS reported that Hurts has deep vein thrombosis and bilateral pulmonary emboli, meaning a clot traveled from his legs to his lungs. Fox News reported that Hurts was cleated in his left calf against the Rams on Oct. 4 and sought treatment Oct. 8. An ultrasound in London on Oct. 10 found a superficial clot, Fox reported; after he was cleared to play the following day, a follow-up scan on Oct. 14 showed movement in the clot.
