If the Eagles lose out and Washington wins out, the Commanders take the NFC East title. Also, the Eagles have a longshot chance at the No. 1 seed in the playoffs if they win out, Detroit loses out and Minnesota falls to Green Bay this weekend.

After being ruled out for Week 17, the focus shifts to Hurts' availability for the Eagles' regular-season finale against the Giants. Depending on results in Week 17, Philadelphia may not have much to play for in Week 18, which could lead to the team saving Hurts for the playoffs.

The Eagles (12-3) close out the regular season next Sunday by playing the New York Giants, who are 2-13. "He's in the concussion protocol, so not a lot I can comment on on that," Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said.
