Tthe league has officially suspended Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts for 15 games following an ongoing investigation into alleged violations of league conduct policies. This development was confirmed in a joint statement released earlier today by the NFL and the Eagles organization.
According to league sources, the suspension stems from an internal probe into Hurts’ alleged involvement in activities deemed a violation of the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy. While specific details of the allegations remain confidential due to ongoing legal and procedural considerations, reports suggest the issue may relate to off-field behavior that reportedly occurred during the offseason.

The NFL emphasized that the decision was not made lightly and followed a thorough investigation, interviews with multiple parties, and a review of supporting evidence. “We take our Personal Conduct Policy very seriously,” the league’s official statement read. “All players are held to the same standard, regardless of status or performance level. After careful review, we have determined that Jalen Hurts’ actions warranted significant disciplinary action.”
Hurts, a team captain and MVP candidate last season, has been a cornerstone of the Eagles’ offense and a fan favorite in Philadelphia. The 26-year-old quarterback has yet to publicly comment on the suspension, though sources close to his camp suggest he plans to appeal the league’s decision. His legal representation is also reportedly preparing a formal statement.
The Eagles organization, clearly stunned by the announcement, responded with a brief but pointed message: “We are aware of the league’s decision regarding Jalen Hurts. While we respect the NFL’s process, we are disappointed and will continue to support Jalen as this situation evolves.”
With Hurts out for most of the 2025 season, the Eagles now face major uncertainty at the quarterback position. Backup QB Tanner McKee and newly signed veteran Marcus Mariota are expected to compete for the starting job moving forward.
Fans across social media have expressed disbelief, frustration, and concern for the team’s future. As one fan posted, “Losing Jalen is a nightmare. This changes everything for Philly.”
More information is expected to emerge in the coming days as the appeal process unfolds and the Eagles re-evaluate their strategy heading into training camp. For now, the franchise and its loyal fanbase are left stunned by the sudden and dramatic twist involving their star quarterback.
