A former Nebraska Cornhusker is listed as questionable heading into this weekend’s NFC Championship Game. Cam Jurgens is dealing with a back injury as the Philadelphia Eagles prepare to face the Washington Commanders this Sunday.
Jurgens has been reliable for the postseason, as he has played offensive snap of the playoffs. If he cannot play this weekend, he would be replaced by Landon Dickerson.
The former Husker has had a stellar season for the Eagles. He started in every game this year and was part of a historic rushing offense with running back Saquon Barkley rushing for over 2,000 yards in the regular season.
He was recruited out of high school as a tight end. The Nebraska native was the sixth overall tight end in the 2018 recruiting class and the top player in his class from the state of Nebraska per the 247Sports Rankings. It was during Scott Frost’s tenure that he switched to the interior offensive line.
The Philadelphia Eagles will host the Washington Commanders this Sunday at 2:00 p.m. CT. The game can be seen on Fox. Find a photo gallery of Cam Jurgens’s career by scrolling below.
