🦅 “Yeah, I’m sorry I’m coming back for another year,” [Philadelphia Eagles] star center Jason Kelce said. flyeaglesfly NBCSPhilly
When Jurgens reached out to Kelce this offseason, he told him he was excited to be his teammate again, whether that meant playing behind him at center or next to him at guard. Obviously, Jurgens would like to be in the starting lineup. And after the departure of Isaac Seumalo in free agency, the right guard spot is vacant in Philly. Jurgens is getting the first crack at it.
“When we’re doing combo blocks, he knows what it’s supposed to be like and feel like,” Jurgens said. “Big thing is just he’s going to show me how he’s going to hit the block and how he expects the presence of a guard right next to him. A lot of times, we’ll go in walkthrough, fit it up and then we’ll go and do the rep. If it feels right, then we can move on. If it doesn’t feel good, we’re going to keep doing it until we get it right. I think that’s super helpful in that aspect.
Jurgens last year played just 35 offensive snaps because Kelce stayed healthy during the season. There’s no guarantee that happens again — knock on wood — which is why it was sensible that the Eagles made a move to replenish their depth.
