Jalen Hurts needs to have a big season for the Philadelphia Eagles for the team to have any chance of making a splash and so far, so good!
On Monday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings, Hurts led the Eagles to a 24-7 halftime score after quite the dominant showing on offense. In the first half, Hurts went 17-for-20 for 251 yards and one passing touchdown. With his legs, on the other hand, Hurts contributed two touchdowns, including this sensational 26-yard run that gave the Eagles a two-score lead.
At the end of the second quarter on third and two, Hurts rolled out of the pocket and gained the first down with ease. But he didn’t stop there, as Hurts then made a little stutter step move at the sideline to change direction and barrel his way forward for an incredible individual effort touchdown.
That #1 guy is pretty good. @JalenHurts
