Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was taken off Philadelphia's injury report Monday ahead of Tuesday's contest against Washington. 

Hurts was previously designated as questionable with a sprained left ankle. He missed Philadelphia's Week 14 win over the Jets due to an ankle injury as Gardner Minshew earned the start. Hurts was a "full participant" in practice on Friday, per ESPN's Tim McManus. 

No injury designation for Jalen Hurts. He was going to be listed as questionable if game was held Sunday, though was trending to start.
