Jalyx Hunt Leaves Eagles Short-Handed Against Jaguars

Philadelphia Eagles edge rusher Jalyx Hunt left the team’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after suffering an apparent leg injury on the final play of the first half at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London on October 11, 2026, according to The Eagles Wire.

Medical personnel evaluated Hunt after Philadelphia’s goal-line stand preserved a 14-7 halftime lead, and The Eagles Wire reported that a cart was brought onto the field before Eagles personnel helped him leave. Hunt was absent when the second half began.

Hunt recorded three solo tackles and one pass breakup before exiting, according to The Eagles Wire. He did not register a sack during the first half.

The injury further reduced Philadelphia’s edge rotation because Jonathan Greenard was already inactive with an ankle injury. The Eagles Wire reported that Greenard was listed as questionable and did not participate in practice during the week.

Arnold Ebiketie and A.J. Epenesa became potential options for increased responsibilities alongside Nolan Smith Jr., according to The Eagles Wire. Philadelphia’s unofficial depth chart listed Ebiketie behind Hunt and Epenesa behind Smith before the injury situation.

Philadelphia’s defensive front had helped build the halftime advantage before Hunt’s exit. According to The Eagles Wire, Jalen Carter recorded two sacks, three tackles for loss and two forced fumbles, while Jacksonville rushed for 33 yards on 13 attempts.

The Eagles Wire reported that Hunt’s absence could affect defensive coordinator Vic Fangio’s available edge rotation and pressure packages. Philadelphia was also without linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr., who was ejected after a confrontation with Jaguars linebacker Brian Thomas Jr. during the opening kickoff.
