Jalen Hurts Responds to Report Claiming He Wants to Run the Ball Less

As the end of the regular season rapidly approaches, the Eagles are still looking to find consistent success on the offensive side of the ball. While much of the focus on the Eagles offensive woes have centered around the struggles with underperformance of star reciever A.J. Brown and running back Saquon Barkley, more attention has recently been paid to Hurts’s decreased production as a runner this year.

Through 12 games this season, Hurts has carried the ball 84 times for 329 yards and eight touchdowns. While he has more carries than any other quarterback this year, he is on track for his lowest rushing totals since he became the Eagles’ permanent starter in 2021.
