The Green Bay Packers are looking to forget their heart breaking season-ending loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday to focus on the Philadelphia Eagles. This time, Chicago’s game winning kick went through the uprights as time expired and ended their 11-game losing streak to their rival to the North.
While Green Bay suffered a brutal injury to Christian Watson in their devastating loss, it turns out Philadelphia is dealing with their own massive injury.

According to Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team:
Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is still in concussion protocol, the team says. Luckily for Philly, the NFL scheduled them a Sunday playoff game — not Saturday.

Hurts being in concussion protocol for the biggest game of the year is very notable.
Wednesday is the deadline for the Eagles to release their first practice report for this week.
Hurts was “progressing” through the protocol, Sirianni said after Sunday’s victory over the Giants. That is more than Hurts has done in the past two weeks.
A concussion Hurts sustained during the first quarter of the Commanders game on Dec. 22 has prevented him from practicing. Tanner McKee started Sunday’s game in his place, while Kenny Pickett started Week 17 against the Cowboys.
Here is a look at Hurts’ stats this season:
