Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts left Sunday’s game against the Washington Commanders with a head injury.

Hurts sustained the injury in the first quarter on an Eagles touchdown drive and was replaced by backup Kenny Pickett. He was slow to get up after his head hit the turf on a tackle and jogged to the sideline. Pickett completed 3 of 3 passes on the drive including a touchdown to A.J. Brown to extend Philadelphia’s lead to 14-0.

Hurts left the field for the locker room, and the Eagles announced before their next possession that he was being evaluated for a concussion. Pickett returned to the field for Philadelphia’s next drive.
