Jalen Hurts Not in Top 10 QB Rankings, NFL Exec Says Eagles Offense 'Became Stale'

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts fell out of the top 10 in the annual positional rankings of ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

One NFC executive told Fowler that Hurts was "playing hurt," which contributed to the dip in his performance. An AFC scout was a little more critical when they said the Eagles signal-caller will "always be in that 7-12 range." An NFL team executive also said Philly's offense "became stale."

Fowler, who canvasses NFL coaches, scouts and executives to establish the hierarchy at each position, listed Hurts at No. 6 in 2023. Heading into the 2024 season, the two-time Pro Bowler failed to make the cut.
