Any Jalen Hurts Rumors Were Just Shut Down by Eagles Boss
There have been many reports coming out about Jalen Hurts over the past month or so, with most stating that he seems to be part of the issue with the Philadelphia Eagles. It's been rather evident that Hurts isn't exactly a star quarterback by any means, but he is still one of the better 15 quarterbacks in this league. We also have to factor in that the guy has done nothing but win during his time with the organization, and there's a lot to be said about that.
Regardless, if some of the stuff that has come out is true about Hurts, the Eagles obviously need to take care of that in-house. The last thing this organization wants to deal with is something not going as well as it should due to attitudes or anything else. However, according to general manager Howie Roseman, there doesn't seem to be much of a problem internally with Hurts.
He stated that if he has any problems with his players, as well as other higher-ups in the organization, he'll go and talk with them directly to figure it out. “So for us, if we have any issue with any of our players, we talk to them directly,” Roseman said , per ESPN. “From my perspective, from Nick's perspective, from Jeffrey’s [Lurie] perspective, we're not hiding behind anything.
We will talk to our players directly. I think that it's unfair. It's unfair to have these articles written, but I understand it's also what sells at this point.
So yeah, I think it's unfortunate. ” This is somewhat similar to what owner Jeffrey Lurie said about a month ago now. After some of these reports had come out, Lurie backed his Super Bowl-winning quarterback, noting how important Hurts has been to him in this league.
