The Philadelphia Eagles have signed quarterback Joe Milton from the Dallas Cowboys to bolster their depth following an injury to starter Jalen Hurts, according to the New York Post and NBC Sports.
NBC Sports reported that Hurts is sidelined indefinitely because of a blood clot, leading Philadelphia to acquire Milton directly from Dallas's practice squad. Milton, who entered the league as a 2024 sixth-round draft pick by the New England Patriots before a trade sent him to Dallas, has played in five games without making a start. Across those appearances, he has recorded 424 passing yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions, and 66 rushing yards with one touchdown.
The acquisition could also rule out a potential reunion between Philadelphia and veteran quarterback Andy Dalton, who was cut earlier this month, NBC Sports reported, as the Eagles look ahead to a Sunday matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

Shared reporting
- The Philadelphia Eagles signed quarterback Joe Milton from the Dallas Cowboys.
- The roster move comes in response to an injury suffered by Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Different framing
- NBC Sports specifies that Jalen Hurts is out indefinitely due to a blood clot and that Milton was signed from the practice squad, while the New York Post frames the situation more generally as an 'injury stunner' prompting Philadelphia to add 'insurance under center.'
Why it matters
The sudden loss of Hurts challenges Philadelphia's offensive stability and forces the team to rely on untested depth at the quarterback position as the season progresses.
