Hurts delivers even without big passing numbers

Jalen Hurts Headshot

Eagles QB Jalen Hurts heads into Monday night as the 5th-highest scorer among QBs (in formats with 4-point TD passes) despite throwing for just 243 yards and 0 TDs in Sunday's win over the Lions. The driver, of course, was his 15-90-1 rushing line, which came from a mix of designed running plays and scrambles. Philadelphia kept the RPO heavily involved in the offense, and Hurts displayed an immediate connection with new WR A.J. Brown. The opener looked like exactly what you should have expected if you drafted Hurts, with plenty of upside remaining on the passing front.
