Jalen Hurts Due For Enormous Extension
2 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles star quarterback Jalen Hurts could receive an extension "early in the offseason," according to Dan Graziano of ESPN.com. Not only will the talented signal-caller earn a big pay raise, but he could fetch a deal with more than $50 million in annual value, especially if Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow, and Lamar Jackson all sign deals that reset the quarterback market. Hurts' price tag is huge, but he is very much deserving of a big payday after his phenomenal 2022 season. This year, the MVP finalist went 14-1 with a 66.5 percent completion rate, 3,701 passing yards, 22 passing touchdowns, and six interceptions. He was also a dynamic threat on the ground, adding 760 rushing yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. Fantasy managers should view Hurts as a high-end QB1, and it would not be a surprise if he's the first quarterback off the board in most 2023 drafts.
