The severity of Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts’ left knee injury is a major concern heading into Sunday’s NFC Championship Game at home against the Washington Commanders. Hurts, who practiced every day this week, told reporters on Friday that his knee is getting better, but he still plans on wearing a brace against the Commanders.

Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles are just one win away from returning to the Super Bowl and adding another NFC championship trophy to their mantle two years after their most recent. But it won't be easy with the streaking Washington Commanders, who they're very familiar with as division rivals, coming to town on Sunday.

Jalen Hurts appeared to injure his knee during the Philadelphia Eagles’ win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday after taking a sack in the third quarter. He wore a brace on that knee the rest of the game, and simply said “I finished the game” when asked by Melissa Stark if he was OK.
