It looks like the Philadelphia Eagles will have a new starting quarterback on Sunday.
According to reports, the Eagles are expected to start backup quarterback Gardner Minshew on Sunday afternoon.
Philadelphia is set to play the New York Jets on Sunday. Hurts has reportedly been dealing with an ankle injury.
However, the move is not official yet. Hurts will reportedly attempt to test out his ankle injury on Sunday morning.
“Jalen Hurts will meet with the training staff when he arrives here at MetLife Stadium but the expectation is it’ll be Gardner Minshew,” Mike Garafolo tweeted on Sunday.

It’s disappointing that Hurts likely won’t be able to go, though many NFL fans are excited to see Minshew play.
