Cam Jurgens Details Playing Through Severe Back Injury During Championship Run

“That Super Bowl we won, I mean, I had a herniated disc,” Jurgens said. He added that his disc “broke off and got wrapped around my sciatic nerve,” making it “hard to walk” and “the worst month of my life.” Jurgens still played through the injury as Philadelphia captured the Super Bowl against the Chiefs. He later secured a four-year, $68 million extension after the postseason run.
