Unlikely to play Sunday
Hurts (ankle) isn't expected to play in Sunday's road game against the Jets, NFL reporter Derrick Gunn reports.
Analysis: Hurts emerged from a Week 12 loss to the Giants with a sore left ankle, and both the quarterback and coach Nick Sirianni initially were confident he'd be able to gut it out and play this weekend. While he logged limited sessions Wednesday through Friday, Hurts split first-team reps with backup Gardner Minshew, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Ultimately, the Eagles appear poised to keep an eye toward the future and not risk a more significant injury with Hurts, allowing…read more

Questionable for Sunday
Head coach Nick Sirianni said Hurts (ankle) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, after splitting first-team practice reps evenly with Gardner Minshew this week, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Sirianni sounded more confident earlier in the week, while Hurts himself said Wednesday that he would be fine for Sunday's game. The 23-year-old quarterback now appears closer to truly questionable, though it's a situation where gamesmanship could be a factor, as the Eagles' running game in particular would look different with backup Gardner Minshew replacing Hurts, who enters Sunday ranked 10th in the league for rushing yards (695) and tied for fifth in rushing touchdowns (eight). Whatever the…read more

Maintains limited practice activity
Hurts (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: After he was estimated as a limited participant for Wednesday's walk-through session, Hurts maintained the same level of activity while the Eagles held a more traditional practice session Thursday. While both Hurts himself as well as head coach Nick Sirianni have expressed varying degrees of optimism that the quarterback will be ready to go for Sunday's game against the Jets, what Hurts is able to do at Friday's practice will likely be the deciding factor in whether he carries an injury…read more

Listed as limited Wednesday
Hurts (ankle) was listed as a limited participant at Wednesday's walk-through practice.
Analysis: Head coach Nick Sirianni noted Monday that Hurts is dealing with a left ankle sprain, but the injury didn't stop the quarterback from from taking part in practice Wednesday. Both Siranni (via Tim McManus of ESPN.com) and Hurts (via Zach Berman of The Athletic) said that the second-year signal-caller expects to play Sunday versus the Jets, and prior to Wednesday's session, Hurts didn't exhibit a limp, according to Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Despite the optimism and how healthy…read more

Says he'll play
Hurts (ankle) said Wednesday that he'll be ready to play in Sunday's game against the Jets, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: He appears to be more confident about his status than does head coach Nick Sirianni, who stopped short of promising Hurts would be available while admitting that he expected his starting quarterback to play. Of course, players often are too optimistic when it comes to injuries, but in this case, Hurts seems ready to back it up on the practice field, starting with his participation in Wednesday's walk-through session. Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer notes that Hurts didn't appear to…read more

Participating in walk-through
Hurts (ankle) will participate in Wednesday's walk-through practice, with head coach Nick Sirianni noting that he expects the quarterback to play Sunday against the Jets, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hurts came out of last weekend's 13-7 loss to the Giants with an ankle injury, and while he seemingly expects to play through it, his participation in the walk-through session doesn't come with any guarantees. Continued practice participation Thursday would be a stronger sign in favor of Hurts suiting up, though Sirianni said he'll have contingency plans in case his starter can't play or has limited mobility, per Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal.

Managing left ankle soreness
Hurts is dealing with left ankle soreness following Sunday's loss to the Giants, Josh Tolentino of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Hurts struggled in Sunday's matchup and completed 14 of 31 passes for 129 yards and three interceptions while rushing eight times for 77 yards. It's not yet clear whether the issue will impact the quarterback's availability for Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Jets, but coach Nick Sirianni said Monday that the team will have a better idea of the 23-year-old's status Wednesday. If Hurts is unavailable Sunday, Gardner Minshew likely would take on a starting role.

Struggles on the road
Hurts completed 14 of 31 pass attempts for 129 yards and three interceptions while running for 77 yards on eight carries against the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Hurts could have had a game-winning touchdown pass at the end if Jalen Reagor had caught one of two on-target passes in traffic, but both were dropped and the comeback attempt ended with the score 13-7. After conducting a more run-heavy offense in recent weeks, the Eagles went pass-happy to open this game, and coincidence or not, Hurts struggled worse than he has in a month or so. A game against the Jets in Week 13 could be just what Hurts needs to hit his stride again, but according to Tim…read more

Three rushing scores in win
Hurts completed 13 of 24 passes for 147 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added 69 yards and three rushing touchdowns on 18 carries in the Eagles' 40-29 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Hurts once again turned in a relatively subdued performance through the air, falling short of 200 passing yards for the fourth straight game and sixth in the last seven overall. However, the athletic second-year signal-caller remained free of turnovers, managed to top 50 rushing yards for fifth straight contest and furnished his third effort with multiple touchdowns on the ground of the campaign. Hurts' statistical downturn through the air remains somewhat confounding considering he threw for…read more

Tosses two TDs in win
Hurts completed 16 of 23 passes for 178 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Broncos. He also gained 53 rushing yards on 14 carries.
Analysis: The second-year QB failed to reach 200 passing yards for the fifth time in the last six games, but between his running and two first-half TD passes to DeVonta Smith, Hurts was able to put together a productive performance. He's now eclipsed 2,000 passing yards and 500 rushing yards on the season heading into a Week 11 tilt against the Saints.

Not much passing again
Hurts completed 11 of 17 passes for 162 yards and a touchdown and gained 62 yards on 10 carries in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: For the second straight game, Hurts attempted fewer than 20 passes, and for the fourth time in the last five games he threw for fewer than 200 yards. What tosses he did make mostly went to DeVonta Smith, as the rookie hauled in 71.6 percent of his passing yards. Hurts' running gives him a strong fantasy floor, but the Eagles' reluctance to let him loose as a passer limits his ceiling heading into a Week 10 clash with the Broncos.

Hardly needs to pass in win
Hurts completed nine of his 14 passing attempts for 103 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added seven carries for 71 yards in Sunday's 44-6 win over the Lions.
Analysis: The Eagles were able to run at will on Detroit and had a three-score lead at the half, so Hurts' arm took a back seat in this one. All of his passing numbers were season lows. On the bright side, he led the team in rushing. With a much better opposing offense on tap in the Chargers in Week 9, the 23-year-old will likely have to throw more to keep up the pace.

Solid showing in Week 7 loss
Hurts completed 18 of 34 passes for 236 yards and two touchdowns while gaining a team-high 61 rushing yards on 13 carries in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: While the second-year quarterback once again wasn't particularly efficient as a passer and lost his first fumble of the year, Hurts still found Kenneth Gainwell and Jalen Reagor for scores through the air. He also hit Dallas Goedert for a two-point conversion. Hurts will take a 10:4 TD:INT, plus five rushing TDs, into a Week 8 matchup on the road against the Lions.

Three total TDs despite struggles
Hurts completed 12 of 26 passes for 115 yards with one touchdown and one interception and added 44 yards and another two scores on 10 carries in the Eagles' 28-22 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night. He also completed a two-point conversion pass.
Analysis: The second-year signal-caller simply couldn't find any consistent rhythm as a passer, but his ability to make plays with his legs still left his fantasy managers pleased. Hurts scooted in from six and two yards out in the second half to help the Eagles make things interesting, a pair of scores that were preceded by a five-yard touchdown toss to Zach Ertz in the first quarter. Hurts now has back-to-back sub-200-yard efforts, and his passing yardage total was also a season-low figure. However, he…read more

Scores twice on ground
Hurts completed 22 of 37 passes for 198 yards and an interception, and rushed nine times for 30 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Panthers. He also had a successful two-point conversion pass.
Analysis: Hurts endured a nightmarish first half, passing for just 74 yards on 24 attempts while seeing a shotgun snap sail over his head and roll out of the end zone for a safety. To make matters worse, the signal-caller had a badly overthrown interception in the third quarter, which came after his team lost another fumble the possession prior. Despite all those negative developments, though, Hurts rallied to close the third, hitting Quez Watkins for 53 yards before sneaking in himself for a touchdown.…read more

Two TDs in loss, two more negated
Hurts completed 32 of 48 passes for 387 yards and two touchdowns to go with eight carries for 47 yards in Sunday's 42-30 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Hurts found Dallas Goedert for a three-yard touchdown in the first quarter but later had would-be touchdowns to Goedert and Zach Ertz wiped out by penalties, as the Eagles ended up settling for field goals in both instances. He moved the ball well through the air and actually led the team in rushing yards as well, but Hurts couldn't keep pace with Patrick Mahomes and the high-powered Chiefs offense.

Struggles despite yardage
Hurts completed 25 of 39 passes for 326 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Monday night's 41-21 loss to the Cowboys. He also rushed nine times for 35 yards.
Analysis: Hurts' first play was a 38-yard connection with Dallas Goedert, but the quarterback was promptly intercepted on an attempted deep ball afterward. The Eagles and their starting signal-caller struggled to move the ball following that turnover, punting four straight times to end the first half. To begin the second, Hurts saw rookie wideout DeVonta Smith slip while getting out of his break on a target near the sideline, allowing Trevon Diggs to intercept him and run 59 yards for a touchdown.

Gets it done as rusher
Hurts completed 12 of 23 passes for 190 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 17-11 loss to the 49ers. He also chipped in 10 rushes for 82 yards and a touchdown.
Analysis: Hurts' final line through the air wasn't all that impressive and was nowhere near his output from Week 1. However, he did narrowly miss out on a much bigger day. It appeared that Hurts had connected with Jalen Reagor for a 36-yard touchdown during the team's third offensive possession, though the call was eventually overturned. He also connected with Quez Watkins for a 91-yard gain, but the drive ultimately stalled at the goal line. Even with those missed opportunities, Hurts provided a solid…read more

Spectacular in Week 1 win
Hurts completed 27 of 35 passes for 264 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the Eagles' 32-6 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also rushed seven times for 62 yards and recovered two fumbles, including one of his own.
Analysis: Any lingering doubts about Hurts' ability to build on his relatively solid late-season starting audition in 2020 definitively were answered Sunday, with the second-year signal-caller looking every bit as good as his numbers imply. Hurts connected with seven different pass catchers and appeared increasingly comfortable as the game went on. The Oklahoma product got the Eagles' scoring started with a pretty 18-yard scoring lob to rookie DeVonta Smith, and he followed it up with a pair of touchdown…read more

Doesn't play in preseason finale
Hurts didn't see a snap in Friday's preseason tie against the Jets.
Analysis: Heading into the contest, coach Nick Sirianni hadn't indicated whether his starting QB would see any action, but the decision ended up being made for him as storms delayed the start of the game by half an hour and left the field in somewhat poor condition, giving the Eagles no reason to risk an injury for Hurts. The 23-year-old will begin his first full season as the starter in Week 1 against Atlanta.

Analysis: Three days after taking a seat preseason Week 2 due to a non-COVID-19 illness, Hurts was back on the field in his usual capacity, but what is less clear is whether he'll get any more in-game reps before Week 1. Fortunately for Sirianni, he'll have joint practices with the Jets this week before having to make a call on Hurts and other key Eagles.

Upon his return Sunday, he took part in stretches, tossed a few passes and progressed to team drills, taking part in every stage of the session.

He was diagnosed with a non-COVID-19 illness and told to stay away from the Eagles for two days.

After he was ruled out, he was deemed to not be dealing with COVID-19. Then, coach Nick Sirianni told Mike Garafolo of NFL Network following the contest that Hurts is "fine now. He's doing OK now." But Hurts' visit to the hospital unveiled that he shouldn't be around his teammates in the short term.

Hurts was evaluated at the hospital, and afterward Sirianni told Mike Garafolo of NFL Network that the QB is "fine now. He's doing OK now."

Illness not COVID-related
Hurts doesn't have an illness related to COVID-19, which has sidelined him from Thursday's preseason game versus the Patriots, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hurts was on the field for pregame warmups but was a late scratch ahead of kickoff, giving veteran Joe Flacco a chance to work with Eagles starting skill-position players. It's unclear if coach Nick Sirianni will have any of those players, including Hurts, participate in Philly's final exhibition Friday, Aug. 27 at the Jets, which may not allow the second-year QB and rookie first-round WR DeVonta Smith to work in a game together before Week 1.

But an illness has kept Hurts away from the field Thursday, delaying the reunion of college teammates.

Looks for TEs in preseason opener
Hurts completed three of seven passes for 54 yards and rushed once for four yards in two drives of work in Thursday's 24-16 preseason loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: All three of Hurts' completions went to tight ends, as we got a preview of an Eagles offense that's likely to feature plenty of looks for both Dallas Goedert and Zach Ertz. The mobile quarterback didn't use his wheels much here, but Hurts will likely utilize his rushing ability more once the games start to count.

Analysis: Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia agrees it was Hurts' best practice this summer, with highlights including perfect throws on a go route to Quez Watkins and a deep out to Travis Fulgham. The second-year QB completed nine of his first 10 passes in the team portion of practice, but on a less positive note, he did lose top receiver DeVonta Smith to a knee sprain later in the session.

Gets Heisman-winning new target
Hurts was reunited with former Alabama teammate DeVonta Smith after the Eagles selected the wide receiver with the 10th overall pick of the 2021 NFL draft, Tim McManus of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Although Hurts hasn't officially been named the Eagles' starting quarterback, selecting a receiver rather than another signal-caller seemingly cements him in the role even further. It also gives the 22-year-old another first-round weapon to throw to after Philadelphia took Jalen Reagor out of TCU last year. It's certainly a major upgrade for a receiving corps that compiled the third-fewest receiving yards last season (2,082).

Yet to be named starter
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni and general manager Howie Roseman were both noncommittal on Hurts entering 2021 as the team's starting quarterback, CBS 3 Philadelphia reports. "To name any starters at this particular time...we've been working with these guys for two days," Sirianni said during an April 21 press conference. "My biggest thing is competition. We're going to have competition at every position."
Analysis: With a new coaching staff in the fold for 2021, all of the Eagles' returning players will have to earn their keep, and Hurts is no exception. As the roster currently stands, Hurts' main competition for the starting job is 36-year-old Joe Flacco. After trading down from the No. 6 overall pick in this week's NFL draft to the No. 12 spot, the Eagles seemingly aren't in position to select any of the top signal-callers on the board, though it won't necessary preclude them from investing an early…read more

No job battle ahead?
Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie wants to make Hurts' success the priority in 2021, rather than emphasizing competition at quarterback, according to Chris Mortensen of ESPN.
Analysis: Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News has a different take, hinting that the Eagles still aren't sure about their second-year signal-caller. While Hurts sits atop the depth chart with Carson Wentz (Colts) out of the picture, Bowen and other Philadelphia beat writers have suggested the Eagles could pick a QB on Day 1 or 2 of the 2021 NFL Draft. This latest report from Mortensen doesn't seem concrete, but it at least does give us a hint about Lurie's thinking with the No. 6 overall pick.

Left atop depth chart
Hurts is the Eagles' top QB after they traded Carson Wentz to Indianapolis, though the team could still draft another signal-caller, according to Les Bowen of The Philadelphia Inquirer.
Analysis: Already owners of the sixth overall pick, the Eagles added a 2021 third-rounder and a conditional 2022 second-round pick in the Wentz trade. What they do next depends on their confidence in Hurts, who had eight total touchdowns -- but also three INTs and six fumbles -- over the final four weeks of 2020. The 22-year-old is a clear favorite for the Week 1 start at this point, but the Eagles still have time to add competition, or at least a high-end backup.

Benched late in losing effort
Hurts completed just seven of his 20 passing attempts for 72 yards, no touchdowns and an interception while adding 34 yards and two rushing touchdowns on eight carries before being benched in favor of Nate Sudfeld in the second half of Sunday's loss to the Washington Football Team.
Analysis: Hurts will finish his abbreviated time as a rookie starter with a 52 percent completion rate, 1,061 passing yards, six touchdowns and five interceptions to go along with 354 rushing yards and three more scores on 63 carries over 15 games (three starts).

Hurts will close out the season under center for the Eagles, aiming to play spoiler for Washington. Through three games as a starter, Hurts has completed 62 of 113 passes (54.9 percent) for 847 yards, five touchdowns and two interceptions, and he's added 238 yards and a score on the ground.

Tops 400 total yards in loss
Hurts completed 21 of 39 passes for 342 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions and added 69 rushing yards on nine carries in Sunday's 37-17 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: The rookie set a new career high in passing yards in his third NFL start, topping last week's 338 while once again posting strong numbers on the ground. However, he also committed multiple turnovers for the first time as the Eagles were eliminated from playoff contention. Hurts will at least get a chance to play spoiler in Week 17 as Philadelphia hosts a Washington club that needs to win to lock up an NFC East title.

Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Hurts will start at Dallas in Week 16, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: The announcement doesn't come as any sort of surprise, given how spectacularly the rookie signal-caller has resurrected Philadelphia's offense in back-to-back starts. Hurts is coming fresh off a close loss to the Cardinals in which he went toe to toe with Kyler Murray, accounting for four total TDs while passing for 338 yards and rushing for another 63 yards. Given the playmaking abilities Hurts has displayed, both through the air and on the ground, he projects as a high-end fantasy option…read more

Accounts for four TDs in defeat
Hurts completed 24 of 44 pass attempts for 338 yards and three touchdowns Sunday against the Cardinals. He also carried 11 times for 63 yards and a touchdown in the 33-26 loss.
Analysis: Hurts completed just 55 percent of his passes, but seven passes of more than 20 yards helped him pile up an impressive yardage total. He connected with Quez Watkins and Greg Ward (twice) for touchdowns in a big second quarter and later scored his first career rushing touchdown. On that note, Hurts made several plays with his legs and has now generated 169 rushing yards on 29 attempts over his first two starts. Despite his inaccuracy and three fumbles (none lost) on the day, Hurts enjoyed an…read more

Drawing another start
Coach Doug Pederson confirmed Monday that Hurts will start Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hurts was dynamic in Sunday's 24-21 upset win over the Saints, running for 106 yards while also avoiding mistakes through the air, with 167 passing yards and a touchdown. Considering the struggles Philadelphia's offense has endured with Carson Wentz under center this season, and how effective Hurts' skill set looked in his first NFL start, it doesn't come as a surprise to see Pederson commit to the rookie for at least another week. As he's already showcased, Hurts' elite rushing ability make…read more

Runs wild in win over Saints
Hurts completed 17 of 30 passes for 167 yards and a touchdown and carried the ball 18 times for 106 yards in Sunday's 24-21 win over the Saints.
Analysis: The New Orleans defense hadn't allowed a 100-yard rusher in 55 straight games, but both Hurts and Miles Sanders (115 yards and two TDs on 14 carries) reached that mark in the upset win. Hurts didn't exactly dazzle as a passer, but considering the quality of the opposition and the final result, it was a very successful first NFL start for the rookie. Eagles coach Doug Pederson hasn't yet committed to Hurts as his starter beyond this game, but it would be a shock if he weren't under center in a…read more

Taking over as starter
Head coach Doug Pederson plans to name Hurts the Eagles' new starting quarterback ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Philadelphia will pull the plug on incumbent Carson Wentz after he again presided over an unproductive offense in last week's 30-16 loss to Green Bay, which dropped the Eagles to 3-8-1 on the season. After Wentz was removed in the second half, Hurts at least provided some semblance of a spark, completing five of 12 attempts for 109 yards, a touchdown and an interception to go with 29 yards on five carries. While questions about Hurts' accuracy and arm strength remain, the elite rushing ability…read more

Starter for Week 14 undetermined
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that he hasn't yet decided whether Hurts or Carson Wentz will start Sunday's upcoming game against the Saints, Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News reports.
Analysis: Hurts replaced Wentz in the third quarter of Sunday's 30-16 loss to Green Bay, and he managed the first passing TD of his young career while commanding the Eagles' final four drives. Pederson said Hurts provided "the spark that got us back in the football game," per Kristen Rodgers of FOX 29 Philadelphia, a likely allusion to the fact that he accounted for the Eagles' only offensive score of the day. Peterson said he'd make a decision at quarterback Wednesday, per Bowen, though it also could…read more

Throws first career TD in loss
Hurts replaced Carson Wentz at quarterback early in the third quarter of Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Packers, completing five of 12 passes for 109 yards and a touchdown with one interception. He also gained 29 rushing yards on five carries.
Analysis: The Eagles produced only a field goal in the first two quarters, and after Wentz led them to another three-and-out to begin the second half, Hurts got the call. While he wasn't particularly efficient in the first extended action of his NFL career, he did toss a 32-yard TD to Greg Ward midway through the fourth quarter for Philly's only offensive touchdown of the day. It's not clear yet who Doug Pederson will name as his starting QB for Week 14, but whoever is under center will face a very tough…read more

Likely to see added snaps Monday
Hurts is expected to see increased playing time at quarterback behind starter Carson Wentz in Monday's game against the Seahawks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The Eagles have mostly deployed Hurts as a gadget player through their first 10 games, but this week, Rapoport notes that "unlike previous snaps, Wentz won't be on the field" when Hurts is out there. In preparation for Hurts taking on an expanded role, the Eagles have handed the rookie second-round pick increased reps with the first-team offense during recent practices, per Tim McManus of ESPN.com. According to Rapoport, the added usage with the first team is expected to result in Hurts seeing…read more

Will keep seeing designed plays
Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that getting Hurts involved on designed plays is "something we'll continue to explore" each week, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: Pederson also suggested that Hurts could handle packages out of the backfield if Miles Sanders (knee) is forced to miss any time. The rookie signal-caller provided Philadelphia's offense with a few much-needed sparks during Sunday's 30-28 loss to the Ravens, though his insertion into the lineup was only occasional. On three touches Sunday (two carries, one reception), Hurts totaled 26 yards, and he also served as an effective decoy during a 74-yard run by Sanders which, after a fumble, resulted…read more

Deemed active Week 2
Hurts is listed as active Sunday against the Rams.
Analysis: Just one game removed from opening his pro career as a healthy scratch, Hurts will serve as the No. 2 quarterback to Carson Wentz, Chris McPherson of the Eagles' official site reports. The 2020 second-round pick will swap in for Nate Sudfeld, but it remains to be seen if Hurts will make any sort of impact or merely has surpassed Sudfeld for the backup gig.

Healthy scratch Sunday
Hurts (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday at Washington.
Analysis: A healthy scratch to begin his NFL career, the 2020 second-round pick will don street clothes while Nate Sudfeld serves as Carson Wentz's backup. Without an injury to the two quarterbacks in front of him, Hurts may be a regular inactive for the Eagles for the foreseeable future.

Starts off as No. 3 QB
Coach Doug Pederson said Carson Wentz and Nate Sudfeld -- rather than Hurts -- will get most of the QB reps during training camp, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.
Analysis: It isn't the first time Pederson has hinted at Hurts beginning his career as the No. 3 quarterback in Philadelphia. That said, the rookie took 16 snaps in a sharp performance at Monday's practice, while Sudfeld got 17 snaps and didn't play nearly as well, according to Eliot Shorr-Parks of 94 WIP. Even if Sudfeld enters Week 1 in the backup job, Hurts could oust him before the end of the season.

Likely to open career as No. 3 QB
Eagles coach Doug Pederson said Tuesday that while Hurts will have the opportunity to compete for the No. 2 quarterback job, the rookie is likely to begin the season behind both Carson Wentz and Nate Sudfeld on the depth chart, Matt Mullin of PhillyVoice.com reports. "Football teams are going to have to rely on their veteran players, and Nate is one of those guys for us. I have a ton of confidence in Nate to become the backup quarterback," Pederson said. "Nothing is ever handed to anybody, and we always try to create competition at every position, and quarterback is not exempt from that. But I fully expect Nate to come in and be aggressive and do the things that he's capable of doing and become the backup to Carson."
Analysis: Though the Eagles used the 53rd overall pick in April's draft on Hurts, that investment alone won't give the rookie the leg up in the job battle with Sudfeld, who is entering his fourth year in the Eagles' system. The shortened offseason in light of the coronavirus pandemic will only make it more difficult for Hurts to gain familiarity with Pederson's offensive scheme, so his first year in the NFL could be more of a developmental one, at least from the perspective of a traditional quarterback.…read more
