00:04Doc, let's go over to South
00:05Philadelphia. The Philadelphia
00:06Eagles taking on the Dallas
00:08Cowboys say we want to start at
00:09the quarterback position.
00:10Number one, Jalen Hurts going
00:11to miss this game with a
00:12concussion and secondarily,
00:14Kenny Pickett's in there. We've
00:15got damaged a little bit last
00:16week. Abdomen slash, you know,
00:18chest type injury. Talk to us
00:20about Kenny Pick and how
00:21efficient he can be today based
00:22on the injuries that you
00:23possibly saw last week. Kenny
00:26Pickett should be okay today.
00:27He did get in some practice and
00:29he's going to need a block to
00:30numb it and to prevent pain as
00:32well as the black jacket. The
00:34Jalen Hurts thing is just
00:35really not a surprise for us.
00:37All week long. We've been
00:38saying Jalen Hurts will not
00:40play this week, even if he gets
00:42cleared. And the reason why is
00:44this, even if he got cleared and
00:46was able to play, if he got a
00:48second impact syndrome or a
00:50second concussion, he would be
00:52out for at least a month. See
00:54Chris Alave, even Tua, et
00:56cetera. The Eagles can't risk
00:58that. They've got only a very
01:00tiny chance for home field
01:01advantage throughout the
01:02playoffs. It's not worth
01:04risking Jalen Hurts, Howie
01:06Roseman and the Eagles know
01:07that. So even if cleared, he
01:09would not have played this
01:10week. They're saving him for
01:11the playoffs. Doc, following up
01:13with the Dallas Cowboys on
01:14their side, they shut down
01:15their superstar wide receiver
01:16CD Lamb. Was that something
01:17that if they were still playing
01:19for something like making the
01:20playoffs, he could have fought
01:21through? Or is that something
01:22that was going to be no better
01:23off for in the off season, get
01:25healed up and be fine for next
01:27Well, he's been fighting
01:28through. So this term shut down
01:30is not CD Lamb saying I don't
01:31want to play. He's been playing
01:33with the same right AC joint
01:34spraying for over a month now
01:36and playing very, very well.
01:38Now that the Cowboys are out of
01:40it, he doesn't need surgery. I
01:42think this is Jerry Jones and
01:43company's way of padding CD Lamb
01:45on the back and said, thank you
01:46for your service. You've really
01:48played through the last month
01:50plus with this injury. There's
01:51no reason to torture you now
01:53when we're out of it. It's a
01:55polite way of saying we're okay
01:57with a little bit of a tank
01:58anyways, we've done what we can
02:00here. So it's not CD Lamb
02:02pulling the report and shutting
02:03down. It's really the team
02:04telling him. Thank you for your
02:06service. Take your time and get
02:08healthy.
