Jalen Hurts and the Eagles (9-8) will face Tom Brady and the Buccaneers (13-4) on Sunday in a 1 p.m. NFC wild-card playoff game at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla.
While most opposing players — particularly quarterbacks — dutifully fall into differing states of genuflection whenis mentioned, the 23-year-old Eagles quarterback had no time for fawning or reflection.
“We just want to continue to do the things that got us here,” Hurts said. “As an offense, we’ve revolutionized and evolved in terms of who we are and our identity. I’ve said different things to ignite the growth. Early on, we were searching for who we were.”Hurts’ indifference to the Brady reference was not surprising considering his personality makeup, which can be described as stoic. His facial expression rarely tells the story about what’s taking place on the field.
After a successful season with the Sooners, Hurts was drafted by the Eagles in 2020 and pushed Carson Wentz from the starting job.
