Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is expected to be sidelined for multiple months after new imaging over the weekend found several blood clots in his lungs.

Hurts is now on blood thinners and should have no long-term effects. But it’s unlikely he plays again this season. pic.twitter.com/iLhCBu0Isa
Carlie Irsay-Gordon on firing Colts GM Chris Ballard: “As I said at the start of the season, the sense of urgency has never been higher. … Making this change during the season was a deliberate decision. Waiting would only delay the important work that needs to begin now.”

In his previous 9 seasons as the #Colts GM, Chris Ballard never won a division title. Had one playoff win. Collapsed to 1-8 to end last season. And don't have a first-round pick. https://t.co/lZmRCASRET

Wow!
Out the rest of the season?
I'm telling you fans really underappreciate Qb2.
Clots are nothing to "F" with. Glad Hurts got this diagnosed and treating under the care of Doc's.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Word is the doctors told him not to fall asleep and he stayed up 36 hours straight....crazy. This was a DIRE situation for him that got found out in the nick of time. I'm sure that international flight just made it worse.
Taylor has no more guaranteed money left on his deal. Next year is a $15 million base salary plus $1.02 million in per-game roster bonuses, and his final year is $9.46 million with a $7.5 million roster bonus, as well as the $1.02 million in per-game roster bonuses. If he falls off, Minnesota isn’t stuck with an albatross contract.
His main areas of success comes in gap concepts like duo and counter, both at Wisconsin and with the Colts. Those have been the Vikings’ best concepts so far this year.

Don't....just don't. Don't get me daydreaming....

Here is the complete list of unrestricted free agents in 2027 for the Colts, should the interim general manager feel it's time to move on from this season.

I mentioned before, as a 1/2 year rental, you most likely recoup anything that you trade for him in FA.
Basically a no risk proposition.

Contenders will call the Colts about Jonathan Taylor ahead of the trade deadline. If Indianapolis continues to lose over the next few weeks, the offers on Taylor will pour in. A team acquiring Taylor would get him for three playoff runs after signing an extension through 2028.

Who would you even call at this point? With the owner micro-managing everything, you think any trades are going to happen with Indy this year via an interim GM? Trading away their stars without a plan sounds like a really good way to alienate your fans.
