Sean Mannion: Jalen Hurts can do anything we ask of him

Yahoo Sports

Sean Mannion took over a high-profile job this offseason when he was named the offensive coordinator of the Eagles in the wake of their disappointing 2025 season. The Eagles offense failed to recapture the heights of their Super Bowl run and there were weekly reports about the dysfunction behind the scenes. Most included mention of quarterback Jalen Hurts and wide receiver A.

J. Brown, whose relationship deteriorated to the point that the Eagles are expected to ship Brown out of town the moment the calendar flips to June. Hurts will still be there and Mannion touched on how things are going with the quarterback during a Thursday press conference.

"Jalen's been awesome," Mannion said, via a transcript from the team. "I really think he can do anything we ask of him. He's accurate.

He's a great athlete. He really attacks the fundamentals. That's what's been really fun to watch these last two weeks of phase two.

He's always wanting more things to work on, wanting more things regarding fundamentals, timing, understanding the scheme. He's hungry for more. Those are the guys that are really fun to work with.
