Eagles' Jalen Hurts says he doesn't remember concussion sideline incident, amid bad year for brain injuries

Keyshawn Johnson argues that Jalen Hurts has proven himself as a top 5 quarterback this season.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has cleared concussion protocol. 

His first game back from concussion, ever, will be a Wild Card playoff game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. 

Hurts told reporters on Friday that he doesn't remember what happened in a moment after he suffered the concussion. 

"It's so far long ago, I don't really remember," Hurts said, when asked "What happened in the moment?" when he tried to get back on the field after suffering the concussion. The incident came in the first half against the Washington Commanders in Week 16. 

Hurts says he has never come back from a concussion before, and opened up on how the experience has disrupted his regular routine. 

"Been out of routine, you go through a routine everyday, and being out of that is challenging, I'm obviously dealing with different symptoms, ain't fun either," Hurts said.

Hurts credited his faith for making it through the experience. 

"I have faith, everything's fine," Hurts said. 

Hurts is the latest quarterback to suffer a brain injury in a scary football season for the issue. 

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered a concussion – the third of his NFL career – in an early-season tilt with the Buffalo Bills, on a nationally televised game. Tagovailoa had previously suffered multiple concussions within the span of just weeks in the 2022 season. The third of his career sparked national controversy, as some former players and media pundits called on him to retire.
