Eagles Rumors: PHI 'Feel Really Good' About Jalen Hurts 'Taking Ownership' of QB1 Job

Even if Jalen Hurts hasn't been named the Week 1 starter for the Philadelphia Eagles, the second-year quarterback has reportedly been "taking ownership of that job."

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler provided the latest Sunday on SportsCenter:

"[Jalen Hurts is] giving off some QB1 vibes right now. I'm told that he's organized offsite workouts with teammates Dallas Goedert, Miles Sanders and others. He's spent significant time really absorbing Nick Sirianni's new playbook. I talked to a coach who was helping Hurts with those workouts. He said that he's just trying to be a good teammate by picking up all the nuances of the offense, doing a lot of legwork so he can relay that to his new guys and that they can be on the same page, make for a better offensive play system.
