My attempt at a fair, honest take on the Jalen Hurts piece this week: The Eagles love Jalen, respect all that he’s accomplished, and want him to be their QB going forward. However, they also obviously want this info out there for a reason. He’s not perfect, and they need him to be better than he was in 2025. The Eagles are investing heavily in a whole new offensive identity with Sean Mannion. I think the team wants to send the message that he needs to fully buy into this new identity and work well with Sean, and not have the “tension” that’s been there with past coaches. Or else they can’t invest in another massive contract as he begins to approach 30 as a mobile QB with deteriorating athleticism. Jalen’s played some of his best ball when his long-term future is brought into question. Hopefully that happens again in 2026 🦅
