Eagles Fall to Commanders After Hurts' Concussion

The Philadelphia Eagles suffered a significant setback in their match against the Washington Commanders, losing 36-33 after quarterback Jalen Hurts was sidelined with a concussion early in the first quarter. Hurts' departure disrupted the Eagles' offensive momentum despite an initial 14-point lead. Backup quarterback Kenny Pickett stepped in, completing 14 of 24 passes for 143 yards, but was unable to maintain the lead as the Commanders rallied, led by rookie Jayden Daniels' five touchdown passes. The Eagles' loss ended their 10-game winning streak and delayed their chance to secure the NFC East title. Daniels' performance was pivotal, as he led a late-game drive to clinch the victory for Washington, putting them on the brink of playoff contention. With Hurts' concussion, his availability for upcoming critical games against the Cowboys and Giants remains uncertain.
