The Philadelphia Eagles entered Week 16 of the NFL season with a chance to lock up the NFC East with a win over the Washington Commanders. However, Washington’s dramatic 36-33 win — led by five touchdown passes from Jayden Daniels — kept the Commanders alive in the NFC East title race.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is officially out against the Dallas Cowboys for Sunday's Week 17 game. Hurts remains in concussion protocol, meaning Kenny Pickett will be the starter. Eagles fans had their holiday season somewhat spoiled when Hurts exited Philadelphia's Week 16 showdown against the Commanders early after suffering a head injury.

Kenny Pickett will start in place of Hurts, who did not practice all week and remains in concussion protocol. Meanwhile, Linebacker Nakobe Dean is listed as doubtful for Sunday.
