Jalen Hurts among several Eagles to change jersey numbers next season

Here’s some fun news to start your Easter Weekend! Jalen Hurts is among several Eagles changing their jersey numbers for the 2021 season, per an official release from the team.

You know what that means. It’s time for some super in-depth analysis!

Jalen Hurts

New number 1

Power. Move. Going from QB2 to QB1 justifies an alpha decision and this is as good as it gets…unless the Eagles do somehow find a way to mess this up and draft a QB…that would be awkward.

Khalil Tate

New number: 6

A former roommate of Jalen Hurts and a former signal caller himself, Tate made the transition from pass-thrower to pass-catcher when catching on with the Eagles, following in the footsteps of Jalen Hurts.
