The Eagles need to scheme up more runs for Jalen Hurts

There is an endless discussion about what throws starting quarterback Jalen Hurts can and cannot make. The one undeniable aspect of his play, however, is his athleticism. That was on display during his final college season at Oklahoma when he rushed for 1,298 yards. It was on display during his first ever NFL start when he racked up 102 yards on the ground in a win over the Saints.

Eagles fans have seen Hurts take off, run and make moves with his legs since then, but it hasn’t felt as much of an integral part of the offense as it should be, especially this season under new head coach Nick Sirianni.
