NFL News Roundup: Eagles’ Jalen Hurts Listed as DNP, Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker Out for ‘TNF’

The NFL landscape is constantly evolving, with injuries and roster moves shaping the outlook for teams across the league. Here’s a roundup of the latest news and updates:

Eagles’ Jalen Hurts Suffers Left Finger Injury, Concussion; Listed as DNP

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been listed as did not practice (DNP) on Wednesday after sustaining a left finger injury and a concussion in Sunday’s loss to the New Orleans Saints. The severity of his injuries is still being evaluated, but Hurts’ status for the team’s Week 17 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys is in jeopardy.

Hurts has been a key part of the Eagles’ success this season, leading the team to a 13-3 record and the No. 1 seed in the NFC. If he is unable to play, backup Gardner Minshew is expected to start in his place.

Seahawks’ Kenneth Walker Ruled Out for ‘TNF’ with Ankle Injury

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been ruled out for Thursday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers due to an ankle injury. Walker suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of the Seahawks’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

Walker has emerged as a key contributor for the Seahawks this season, rushing for 626 yards and 9 touchdowns. His absence will be a significant blow to Seattle’s offense, which will now likely rely more heavily on veteran running back Travis Homer.
