Jalen Hurts, Quinyon Mitchell listed as full participants at practice Thursday; Dallas Goedert, Cam Jurgens miss practice

We are fast approaching the NFC Championship Game, and two key Eagles fully participated in Thursday’s practice.

After both being limited on Wednesday, Jalen Hurts (knee) and Quinyon Mitchell (shoulder) were listed as full participants at practice on Thursday.

Hurts and Mitchell were both injured against the Rams in the NFC Divisional Round last week in the snowy Philadelphia. Hurts never left the game, but Mitchell never returned after his injury in the first half.

There was never any doubt Hurts would not be playing against Washington, but this is a pretty good indication that there will not be any restrictions with him.

Lane Johnson said Hurts at practice “was mobile. He was moving.” Jordan Mailata added Hurts has been “a lot more fired up” this week, adding, “It’s good to see that.”

Mitchell, who told reporters on Wednesday that he is ready to go and is playing on Sunday, is on track to play against Washington.

A.J. Brown was also upgraded to a full participant after being limited with his knee issue on Wednesday, which is a good sign.

Meanwhile, Dallas Goedert (ankle) and Cam Jurgens (back) both did not participate on Thursday for the second straight day.

Goedert was at practice but did not participate. Goedert made five receptions for 61 yards, averaging 12.2 yards per catch, including a 32-yard grab against the Commanders in Week 11 at the Linc. Without Goedert at the Commanders in Week 16, the Eagles’ backup tight ends struggled to block. Grant Calcaterra and E.J. Jenkins are the other tight ends on the roster.

Jurgens was not present during the portion of practice that was open to the media. Landon Dickerson took first-team reps at center on Thursday with Tyler Steen at left guard, which is a little concerning for Jurgens’ game status.

Without Jurgens, the Eagles’ starting offensive line on Sunday could be: LT Mailata, LG Steen, C Dickerson, RG Mekhi Becton, RT Johnson.

Dickerson, however, has some confidence Jurgens will be good to go.
