Reuben Frank breaks down the ugly numbers behind the Eagles offense and the 4-game losing streak the team is mired in after a Week 6 loss to the Panthers. [...] The Eagles haven’t made any of their trainers or doctors or their general manager available to discuss Jalen Hurts’ condition or the events before and after he played vs. the Jaguars last Sunday after being diagnosed with blood clots.

The blood clots have since moved into his lungs, most likely ending his seventh NFL season after just five games.

So it’s been up to Nick Sirianni to field all questions about something he’s not an expert on. [...] Q: “Hey Nick, there was a report that Jalen got pretty limited sleep the night before the game in London. I was wondering if you could take us behind the decision between the limited sleep and being diagnosed with the blood clot the day before why you felt it was safe that he could play in that game.”
