Jalen Hurts Posts Great Fantasy Numbers Despite Loss
2 months agoPhiladelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 23 of 30 passes for 183 yards, one touchdown, and one interception while adding 13 carries for 85 yards and an additional score during the team's 22-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. This was the first game in quite a while that the 26-year-old looked like the rushing quarterback that led the Eagles to the Super Bowl, and even with the costly turnover at the end of the game, he was a top-tier fantasy option in Week 2. He did this against a solid Falcons defense and no top target as A.J. Brown (hamstring) missed this game and will likely miss a few more. Fantasy managers should be encouraged by this performance and have hope that Hurts will be the fantasy force he was drafted to be moving forward. The Eagles signal caller will be a top-five option next week in a showdown against the impressive New Orleans Saints.
