Mandatory Credit: Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is back at practice and expected to play in the NFC wild-card game Sunday against the Packers.
Philadelphia (14-3) hosts Green Bay (11-6) in the second meeting between the teams this season. The Eagles beat the Packers 34-29 in Brazil on Sept. 6 in the regular-season opener for both teams.
The Eagles used backup quarterbacks Tanner McKee and Kenny Pickett the past two games with Hurts sidelined by a concussion since Dec. 22.
Green Bay ended the regular season with QB health concerns, too.
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said he expected no lingering injury issues for quarterback Jordan Love, who was unable to finish the team's Week 18 loss to the Chicago Bears due to an elbow injury.
Love said team doctors told him during Sunday's game the pain in his throwing arm should "go away."
"Not sure when, but it's feeling better," Love said.
Love also left the first meeting with the Eagles in the fourth quarter with a knee injury. He threw two TD passes, one interception and was sacked once.
Backup
Malik Willis hurt his thumb against the Bears and LaFleur said the Packers almost turned back to Love to hand the ball off.
Hurts, 26, had 18 touchdown passes and 14 rushing touchdowns during the regular season.
Offensive coordinator Kellen Moore said Tuesday he has been in close contact with Hurts regarding the game plan. Hurts tossed two TD passes and two interceptions in Week 1 against the Packers.
