Jalen Hurts’ 2024 regular season ended in Week 16, but the Eagles star quarterback is rested and set to return to game action.
Philadelphia will have their final practice ahead of wild card Sunday, and Hurts has cleared concussion protocol, signaling an official return to the lineup.

Hurts was 1-4 passing for 11 yards and had three carries for 41 yards before exiting for the blue medical tent against the Commanders three weeks ago.
In Week 17, Kenny Pickett and Tanner McKee tossed touchdown passes as Philadelphia dominated Dallas 41-7 at Lincoln Financial Field. Pickett is nursing broken ribs and missed the season finale, but Tanner McKee shined in a win over the Giants.
With Hurts set to return, Philadelphia waived Ian Book on Tuesday.
