Eagles Coach Provides Update on Jalen Hurts’ Progress in Pivotal Offseason
The Philadelphia Eagles have an update on Jalen Hurts as he works with a new coach during OTAs this offseason.
In April, Jalen Hurts was the subject of an ESPN article by Tim McManus and Jeremy Fowler detailing issues with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2025. ESPN called the 2026 season a “crossroads” for the 27-year-old quarterback and winner of the Super Bowl MVP in 2024. Hurts was criticized for the way he wanted the offense to run, causing some dysfunction in the locker room.
The Eagles fired Kevin Patullo after his lone season as the offensive coordinator. New Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion will be tasked with getting Hurts and the offense on the same page.
