After the Eagles drafted Jalen Hurts in the second round in 2020 — a move that “left mouths agape across the country,” NFL.com reported at the time — even then-coach Doug Pederson seemed to endorse the notion that Hurts might not be an NFL-caliber passer.
“Taysom Hill on steroids,” Pederson called Hurts, referring to the manner in which the Saints had used the run-first Hill as a complement to Drew Brees.
So what has Hurts done since then? Taken over for a clearly less-talented Carson Wentz.
