Eagles QB Jalen Hurts will be absent from Thursday’s preseason game due to illness.
Fantasy Impact: After Hurt’s mediocre performance in Week 1 of the preseason, which was accompanied by teammate Joe Flacco playing very well, reports surfaced that the starting job for the Eagles is still up in the air. This was always a concern with Hurts, as even though he flashed potential towards the end of last season, he has yet to prove consistency with his arm. Missing a preseason game certainly doesn’t help his case to become the starter either. He’ll hope to rebound from his current sickness and be ready for the Eagles next preseason matchup, which is next Friday against the New York Jets.
