Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has played the last two games with an ankle injury that could teach him a valuable lesson.
In the last two weeks, the Eagles have beaten Washington and the Giants and they’ve done it with Hurts at quarterback. Those were two big wins that have the Eagles on the brink of clinching a playoff berth as they head to Washington this weekend.Against Washington the first time, he had just 38 rushing yards. And against the Giants last week, he had just two rushing attempts for seven yards.
“Yeah, I think any game that you play in, there are going to be lessons that you learn,” head coach Nick Sirianni said. “I don’t think that depends on your limitations or whatever it is. No matter if you played a really good game or a really bad game, you’re always going to learn.” With Hurts, there’s always going to be a balance to strike. Sometimes, his best bet is to flee the pocket and pick up yards with his legs. Other times, he and the Eagles are better off if he stands tall, buys time and throws down the field. He’s never going to make the right decision 100% of the time. But it’s about trying to ensure that he makes the right decision at the highest rate possible.
