00:00All right, to the Eagles, I don't know if a lawsuit is going to happen,
00:06but it feels like there could be a lawsuit that happens
00:09if Jalen Hurts' career is in jeopardy for all of this.
00:13Look, over the weekend, we saw stories being told by guys
00:16who were in the broadcast booth, namely Kirk Herbstreit,
00:19who said, look, I'm still taking blood thinners today
00:21for the blood clots that they uncovered while I was playing,
00:25and that was 25 years ago.
00:27So this is a lifelong issue that has been uncovered for Jalen Hurts,
00:32but he played a football game overseas,
00:34and it was cleared to do so by the Eagles,
00:38and then he comes back, not only has the blood clot moved,
00:42which is scary because you can die from that,
00:44but they found multiple other blood clots in his body.
00:48He's out for the season.
00:49From a Jalen Hurts perspective, what's your reaction
00:53that this is not just an isolated issue,
00:55this is a chronic problem now for him?
00:57I don't think it's going to be a chronic problem,
00:59and I won't get into Kirk Herbstreit's medicals
01:02and things like that or whatever
01:06and just trying to transpose whatever is going on
01:09or has gone on in his life,
01:10and who knows what kind of medical maladies he deals with
01:14on a daily basis.
01:15I don't know.
01:16I don't care.
01:17What I can say is having a medical background
01:19is as soon as this was announced,
01:21I thought Jalen Hurts was not going to play
01:22for the rest of the season.
01:24Now, despite all the dumbass talking heads,
01:28which I will not even give this person airtight
01:29by naming them on this show,
01:32but the dumbass giving opinions where he has no clue
01:35about what the hell he's talking about,
01:38pulling his best wannabe Stephen A. Smith
01:40and getting out there and saying a bunch of bullshit
01:42that he can't pack up because he's an idiot.
01:46Outside of all of that,
01:48I thought Jalen Hurts was not going to play
01:50for the rest of the season
01:51because when you're dealing with blood clots
01:54of any shape, form, or fashion in treatment,
01:56this is not an overnight thing that goes away just quickly.
02:00Something you treat with blood thinners
02:02for multiple weeks,
02:04you get multiple scans,
02:05you have follow-ups.
02:06Do I think this is career-ending for Jalen Hurts?
02:08Probably not.
02:09Okay.
02:10In the sense of they're going to do follow-up scans,
02:12a lot of times these resolve on their own
02:15and things of that nature.
02:16Now, again, this is assuming he doesn't have
02:18any other fallouts because of he is currently dealing
02:22with a very, very serious medical issue.
02:24And none of us know, have the compass
02:26or can go into the future and say,
02:29does he not have any other fallouts as a result
02:33because of what he is currently dealing with?
02:35But assuming this resolves itself based off of treatment,
02:38I think we will see Jalen Hurts back on an NFL field.
02:42But again, that's, this is a tenuous situation, man.
02:45Like we're talking about somebody who's honestly,
02:48like the fact that we're even discussing this
02:50and not discussing this in a very different manner
02:53of something horrible happened to Jalen Hurts
02:55because of, I just have the more details
02:58that come out about this for all,
03:00and we're all processing this in kind of real time.
03:02I just have more and more questions
03:04about the handling of this by the Philly medical staff.
03:07I will not like pretend to understand
03:11and know all the intricacies and the timeline
03:13of all of this and how it laid out
03:16because we're slowly getting all of this trickled out
03:18to the news media and stuff like that
03:20based off of also like Jalen Hurts' agent
03:23coming out and being like,
03:24hey, look, this is the real of it.
03:25This is what he's going through, okay?
03:28And this is what was going on overseas
03:30that nobody knew about.
03:32Now we know about
