#Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker, who dealt with a pulmonary embolism with blood clots in both lungs in high school, was asked about Jalen Hurts today:
"He went on the flight, huh? And everything? Yeah, that's crazy. Just stay positive."
The #Chiefs, when they have a health situation that requires more context, send out head trainer Rick Burkholder to explain it to the media.
He did that today with LT Josh Simmons.
Here’s his full explanation:
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.
The Chiefs are among several teams interested in WR Justin Watson, per source.
Watson played for Kansas City from 2022-24 and is a three-time Super Bowl champion, having beaten the Chiefs with the Bucs before being part of their back-to-back title teams.
