The Philadelphia Eagles might have just given a key hint as to Jalen Hurts' status for Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Cowboys. Quarterback Ian Book was signed to the team's practice squad on Thursday, the team announced.

However, the former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback sustained a rib injury after replacing Hurts in the Eagles' loss to the Commanders last week. NBC Sports Philadelphia's John Clark posted a video on X showing Pickett at practice, and it appeared he was wearing additional padding.

So, behind Pickett, it would be Tanner McKee and Book up next. Book has been in the league since 2021, being drafted by the New Orleans Saints in the fourth round. After only one year, he was released and the Eagles picked him up off waivers. Following a full year in Philadelphia, he was waived once again. In 2023, Book spent five days with the New England Patriots practice squad, and was with the Kansas City Chiefs all throughout training camp this past year before being waived in final roster cuts. He has appeared in only one game, which was with the Saints in 2021. There he went 12-of-20 with 135 passing yards and two interceptions along with eight sacks. On the rushing side, he had three carries for six yards. It's another stint for Book with a team he has experience with. So, let's see who is in the pocket for the Eagles on Sunday. This article first appeared on A to Z Sports and was syndicated with permission.Jeremiyah Love basked in both his accomplishment and the congratulatory screams and shouts of his teammates. Moments earlier, the sophomore running back had taken the handoff from Riley Leonard, accelerated through a hole and sprinted 68 yards into the end zone. One hundred years, one month, and five days — or, for the exacting, 36,561 days — later, the descendants found the proper way to pay homage to their forefathers. By doing what their ancestors did so long ago: Beating their forever rival. No. 6 Notre Dame reinforced its claim for a berth in the College Football Playoff by routing previously unbeaten No. 19 Army, 49-14, Saturday night at Yankee Stadium. In what was a mostly complete performance, the Fighting Irish (10-1) rolled up 464 yards of total offense against an Army (9-1) squad that entered the contest allowing opponents 10.3 points per game, which was tied for the fewest in the nation with Ohio State. Notre Dame finished the game with 275 yards on the ground and five rushing touchdowns. Love ran for 130 yards and two touchdowns on seven carries. Jadarian Price added 53 yards on 10 carries and two scores. Aneyas Williams recorded 62 yards and a touchdown on three carries. They weren’t the Four Horsemen, but the triumvirate more than sufficed. The nationally televised primetime showcase was the centerpiece of Notre Dame’s centennial celebration of the school’s 13-7 win over Army at the Polo Grounds on Oct. 18, 1924. What took place over the course of three hours in the ballyard in the Bronx on a clear, cool night bore little resemblance to the epochal matchup in the Polo Grounds. Because, in part, the forward pass was utilized. Particularly by the Irish as Leonard threw touchdown passes of 28 yards to Jordan Faison and 6 yards to Love on Notre Dame’s first two possessions of the game. Leonard completed 9-of-11 passes for 130 yards and the two scores in the first half. The senior finished the game 10-for-13 for 148 yards and two touchdowns before being replaced by sophomore Steve Angeli late in the third quarter. Angeli was 4-for-5 for 41 yards. The Black Knights cut the deficit to 14-7 early in the second quarter on quarterback Bryson Daily’s 4-yard touchdown run. And when Army stopped Love on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line on the ensuing possession, a murmur rumbled amongst the partisan crowd. Could the visiting Black Knights — Notre Dame was the home team for this game — pull the upset? The Irish answered the question definitively by forcing Army into a three-and-out and, when they regained possession of the ball, Love atoned with a 14-yard touchdown jaunt which was the culmination of Notre Dame’s three-play, 41-yard drive. Price’s 2-yard touchdown run with 26 seconds remaining sent the Irish into halftime with a 28-7 lead. Notre Dame had an insurmountable advantage. So with the result essentially accounted for, it was time for the Irish to do some resume building and statement making ahead of the playoff games they hope to find themselves in. And on the first play from scrimmage in the second half Love began and finished his 68-yard expedition through Army’s defense. Which was bookended by Price’s 10-yard touchdown run at the end of the third quarter that stretched Notre Dame's lead to 42-7. Williams’ 58-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter ballooned the Irish’s advantage to 49-7. Daily’s 1-yard touchdown plunge with 22 seconds left ended the scoring. Daily accounted for 139 of Army’s 207 rushing yards. He also completed 4-of-8 passes for 26 yards. The Black Knights totaled 233 yards of offense. Notre Dame kicker Mitch Jeter missed a 48-yard field goal at the end of the first half, and had his 30-yard attempt midway through the third blocked.
ROME (AP) — Robert Lewandowski joined Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi as the only players in Champions League history with 100 or more goals. But Erling Haaland is on a faster pace than anyone by boosting his total to 46 goals at age 24 on Tuesday. Still, Haaland's brace wasn't enough for Manchester City in a 3-3 draw with Feyenoord that extended the Premier League champion's winless streak to six matches. Lewandowski’s early penalty kick started Barcelona off to a 3-0 win over previously unbeaten Brest to move into second place in the new single-league format. The Poland striker added goal No. 101 in second-half stoppage time. Ronaldo leads the all-time scoring list with 140 goals and Messi is next with 129. But neither Ronaldo nor Messi play in the Champions League anymore following moves to Saudi Arabia and the United States, respectively. “It’s a nice number,” Lewandowski said. “In the past I didn’t think I could score more than 100 goals in the Champions League. I’m in good company alongside Cristiano and Messi.” The 36-year-old Lewandowski required 125 matches to reach the century mark, two more than Messi (123) and 12 fewer than Ronaldo (137). Barcelona also got a second-half score from Dani Olmo. The top eight finishers in the standings advance directly to the round of 16 in March. Teams ranked ninth to 24th go into a knockout playoffs round in February, while the bottom 12 teams are eliminated. Haaland has 46 goals in 44 games Haaland converted a first-half penalty to eclipse Messi as the youngest player to reach 45 goals then scored City's third after the break to raise his total to 46 goals in 44 games. Ilkay Gundogan had City's second. But then Feyenoord struck back with goals from Anis Hadj Moussa, Santiago Gimenez and David Hancko. Inter leads standings and hasn't conceded a goal Inter Milan beat Leipzig 1-0 with an own goal to move atop the standings with 13 points, one more than Barcelona and Liverpool, which faces Real Madrid on Wednesday. The Serie A champion is the only club that hasn't conceded a goal. Bayern Munich beat Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 — the same score from the 2020 final between the two teams. PSG ended with 10 men and remained in the elimination zone. The French powerhouse has struggled in Europe after Kylian Mbappe’s move to Real Madrid. Kim Min-jae’s first-half header was enough for Bayern, especially after Ousmane Dembelé was sent off in the 56th with his second yellow. Atalanta moved within two points of the lead with a 6-1 win at Young Boys. Charles De Ketelaere scored two and assisted on three other goals for Atalanta. Also, Arsenal kept red-hot striker Viktor Gyokeres quiet in a 5-1 win over Sporting Lisbon; and Germany star Florian Wirtz scored two goals and was involved in two more as Bayer Leverkusen boosted its chances of finishing in the top eight with a 5-0 rout of Salzburg. AC Milan follows up win over Real Madrid with another victory AC Milan followed up its win at Real Madrid with a 3-2 victory at last-place Slovan Bratislava in an early match. Christian Pulisic put the seven-time champion ahead midway through the first half by finishing off a counterattack. Then Rafael Leao restored the Rossoneri’s advantage after Tigran Barseghyan had equalized for Bratislava and Tammy Abraham quickly added another. Nino Marcelli scored with a long-range strike in the 88th for Bratislava, which ended with 10 men. Bratislava has lost all five of its matches. Alvarez and Griezmann lead Atletico to 6-0 rout Argentina World Cup winner Julian Alvarez scored twice and Atletico Madrid routed Sparta Prague 6-0 in the other early game. Alvarez scored with a free kick 15 minutes in and Marcos Llorente added a long-range strike before the break. Alvarez finished off a counterattack early in the second half after being set up by substitute Antoine Griezmann, who then marked his 100th Champions League game by getting on the scoresheet himself. Angel Correa added a late brace for Atletico, which earned its biggest away win in Europe. Atletico beat Paris Saint-Germain in the previous round and extended its winning streak across all competitions to six matches. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer Andrew Dampf, The Associated Press
