Jalen Hurts has been hot in the NFL news lately after suffering a superficial blood clot. Critics call it a franchise altering injury while some may not know the deadly, controversial truth.
Hurts traveled to London and played with a blood clot during Week 5 of the NFL regular season. The travel truly affected Hurts injury.
Dr. AaKash Gupta clearly states if a patient has sat on an airplane without moving for four hours or more, the NFL should not be flying players.
The Philadelphia Eagles elicited a statement by saying Hurts was cleated and taken in for a follow-up ultrasound just days after London.
But, that was not the reason Hurts got injured.
Much like Chris Bosh, a blood clot can lead to the system and shut down. The NFL must take priority of traveling its own players because their health means more to anyone else.
Rodger Goodell and the league is going to bat for COVID-19 vaccines to not be exposed. It is a league requirement that everyone got their booster from the happenings of COVID-19.
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed Joe Milton from the Dallas Cowboys practice squad to fill in a spot between Tanner McKee and Cole Payton.

Dylan Larkin is no longer captain of the Detroit Red Wings and Alex DeBrincat just signed the biggest contract in Red Wings history by earning 7-years, $13 million AAV.
Both are from the Michigan area and add to the 30% of team offensive output. Shawn Horcoff is the new interim general manager and he is ensuring team security with head coach Todd McLellan.
Ever since the loss of Steve Yzerman, there have been changes. People are getting tired of the Larkin trade talk as there have been rumors regarding him and the Minnesota Wild.
Lucas Raymond is the alternate captain and who is to say Larkin cannot stick with the team but considering they just signed DeBrincat to a huge contract. Who would not say Larkin is expendable based off age.
Larkin is 30 years old and has worked fairly decent with DeBrincat. They may want to get younger and find a better strategy to win more hockey games.

NFL Week 5 Review
-
Matvei Michkov has not lived up to the hype since arriving to the Philadelphia Flyers and it seems as if his playing days are coming to an end there.
Yahoo Sports is reporting that the Flyers have moved on from Michkov after a poor season last year and henceforth. He has not progressed into the 26 goal leader or man that took defensive accountability from coach Rick Tocchet. Something that was emphasized before a 0-5-2 start and loud boos from the Philly audience to fire coach Tocchet.
Coach, ostensibly, took accountability for the team’s drastic start. Michkov has proven to be neither nor there. A jerk on the ice.
The Flyers took a huge mountain climb step when they thought of acquiring Leo Carlsson in the new space age of cap. Porter Martone has been the huge key to patience with the Flyers.
If he can fill into his size as a projectable forward. Teams are going to be looking at the Flyers very dangerously. They acquired Joseph Woll in a deal that has helped significantly with the health of Dan Vladar in net.
Michkov has stripped all pieces of his Instagram account and is no longer Flyers affiliated. The Flyers ought to hope 2026 first round defenseman Maksim Sokolovskii can fill in nicely and the whole regular lineup will adjust to better team hockey surrounded by veterans Owen Tippett, Travis Sanheim, Sean Couterier, and an unhealthy Travis Konecny at the moment.

The Los Angeles Dodgers stumped to a new low when the Milwaukee Brewers defeated them 3-0 on Sunday night. Sunday marked the beginning of the week of a turn of events in which were unfortunate for two-time CY Young winner Tarik Skubal. Just when Dodgers fans expected a big turn out. They received nothing.
The score margin was 0-3 meaning nothing out of the Dodgers offense without star player healthy, Shohei Ohtani. Usually, the Dodgers are 268-188 with Ohtani in the lineup.
Brice Turang stole his spotlight when he catapulted a 2-run shot to left field in the bottom of the fourth inning. Skubal was in shock of what just happened and the Dodgers had a right to be, too.
They play again today at 5 but expect this new low to take on a life of its own. It could be calling for a beast or inquiring about Jacob Misiorowski for Game 4 or 7. This is what postseason baseball is all about.
Where the best come to play and this series could define who ultimately wins the 2026 World Series of baseball.

The teams’ starting lineup was scoring and they were flowing in more ways than not. Most people noticed LeBron James’ no-look pass to VJ Edgecomb to start the game.
Pretty spectacular, right?
But it did not end there.
Jaylen Brown contributed 18 points and looked as if he was picking up where the Finals MVP started from last year.
Tyrese Maxey was the floor general. He scored 14 points and even showed no fierce signs of a colossal dunk. It was pretty surprising there was no and-1 called.
Maxey had to alert Embiid at times to stay alert in a preseason game with it being critical to stay on page with two new teammates such as James and Brown. After the huddle between big and small, Embiid showed vintage signs of him playing responsible defense and almost stealing a ball out of play.
The Maxey and Embiid connection will be key. I think honestly LeBron James cannot coach up Embiid nor will he be disrespected by media for comments made by Mike Breen saying from a close source that he missed a little practice and James reprimanded him.
Only Embiid has the power to circulate around his teammates and coach Nick Nurse to play better basketball. A loss to the Brooklyn Nets was not the way to start. Hopefully, they do better.
The team is in love with reserve LeBaron Philon and Dean Wade looked fantastic shooting the ball which may be his only strength.
Wade let loose a turnover pass and Jabari Walker showed he wants to make the team. James proves he still needs another preseason game or two to warmup to new ideas generated on the basketball court.
