We can take the training wheels off of one Philadelphia Eagles rookie now.

Whether or not the Philadelphia Eagles are Jalen Hurts‘ team or not going forward is up in the air. Some believe he’s the guy. Others wonder if he has the stuff to lead this team long-term. Either way, regardless of what side you’re on, right now the rookie can add the term ‘former’ to his starting quarterback title.

His third career NFL start comes in Week 16 versus the team many Birds fans hate the most, the Dallas Cowboys (the New York Giants and Washington Football Team are right in that mix too).
