Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts enters Week 16 against the Washington Commanders fresh off one of his best passing performances of the season. In the Eagles' 27-13 win over the Steelers, Hurts completed 25-of-32 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns while adding 45 rushing yards and another score. His 14 rushing touchdowns lead all quarterbacks this season, and his 290 passing yards marked his second-highest total of 2024. Washington's defense ranks fourth in passing yards allowed per game (189.6), but they've surrendered 23 passing touchdowns and struggle against mobile QBs. Hurts' dual-threat ability and consistent scoring upside keep him locked in as a high-end QB1. He'll look to add to his six-touchdown total over the past two games against the Commanders defense.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts delivered a stellar performance in the team's 27-13 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Hurts completed 25 of 32 passes for 290 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions while adding 45 rushing yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Hurts silenced any doubts about the Eagles' passing game by averaging an impressive 9.1 yards per attempt and connecting on six passes of 20+ yards. Despite playing with a broken finger, this performance included his second-highest passing total of the season (290) and second-highest completion rate (78.1%). Hurts' dual-threat ability was on full display as he added his 14th rushing touchdown of the season, solidifying his position as an elite fantasy QB. Heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Commanders, Hurts remains a top-tier option, capable of delivering in both the passing and rushing game.

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (finger) was seen wearing a bandage around his apparently broken finger when he arrived at Sunday's game. While Hurts was not on the injury report this week, this situation is worth monitoring leading up to kickoff in case he is limited in any fashion during today's game. For now, fantasy managers should keep him in their starting lineup until further notice.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will face the Pittsburgh Steelers at home on Sunday in Week 15. Hurts has relied on his rushing prowess to remain a top fantasy quarterback with 13 rushing touchdowns this season, just two shy of his previous season-high. Through the air, Hurts has thrown for under 200 yards in three consecutive games but still has managed multiple touchdowns in all but three outings this season. Pittsburgh's secondary has allowed 218.6 passing yards per game but is tough in the red zone, with 15 interceptions compared to only 14 passing touchdowns allowed. Despite the tough matchup, Hurts' dual-threat ability and red-zone dominance keeps him in QB1 territory for Week 15. Fantasy managers should temper expectations but confidently start him.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts threw for 108 yards and two touchdowns off 14-for-21 passing in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Carolina Panthers. He added eight carries for 59 yards and a touchdown. The Eagles were expected to cruise to an easy victory over the Panthers in Week 14. However, despite earning the win, that wasn't the case, with Hurts facing constant pressure all afternoon. Still, his performance was good enough to satisfy fantasy managers. With Philadelphia sniffing another postseason berth, Hurts and company will look for another win in the Week 15 intrastate showdown with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dec 8, 2024 5:38 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has been a top fantasy signal-caller during the 2024-25 campaign. After Philly began the season with a .500 record, the Eagles haven't lost a game since their Week 5 bye. With that said, Hurts didn't look the best in the Week 13 win over the Baltimore Ravens, throwing for only 118 yards and a touchdown off a rough 11-for-19 passing, adding nine carries for 29 yards and a touchdown on the ground. However, he has an excellent chance to get back on track in Sunday's game versus Carolina. Without question, the Panthers defense has struggled throughout the year, allowing a league-worst 30.5 points per contest. To be fair, the Panthers played better than expected in recent meetings with the Bucs and Chiefs in the last two weeks. Still, things could be much different versus Philadelphia in Week 14, so Hurts should be in line for one of his best showings of the season.
Dec 7, 2024 12:45 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts may not have had the big passing day many expected, but he still delivered a big win on the road. In the 24-19 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, Hurts ended with 118 yards and a score on 11-for-19 throwing while adding nine carries for 29 yards and another touchdown. Red zone Hurts, especially on the goal line, is unstoppable in real life and fantasy football. He'll switch gears after this hard-fought win to take on the lowly Carolina Panthers in Week 14.
Dec 2, 2024 9:55 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is coming off his worst fantasy performance since Week 4, but he has a beautiful chance to bounce back and get right this Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. Hurts, who currently ranks as the overall QB2 and has been inside the top three during each of the last three seasons, will look to show off his arm and rushing skills in a potentially neutral game script scenario in Week 13. Furthermore, while Baltimore is viewed as an above-average offense and defense, there's actually a lot to like about Hurts' matchup. So far this season, the Ravens have allowed the most passing yards, third-most passing touchdowns, and second-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks. Hurts should be started as a high-end QB1 in all fantasy leagues this week.
Nov 30, 2024 9:14 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 15 of 22 passes for 179 yards and a score, adding 12 carries for 39 yards during the team's 37-20 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. The 26-year-old played a solid game, making a few great throws to wide receiver A.J. Brown, but finished with just one touchdown for the second week in a row. Saquon Barkley has a lot to do with that, as he carried this offense tallying 302 total yards and two touchdowns. The touchdowns will come for Hurts, and with his low turnover rate since the team's Week 5 bye, the veteran quarterback has a relatively safe fantasy floor in any matchup with one of the highest ceilings of any at the position. Continue to fire him up confidently as he heads to Baltimore to take on the Ravens next week.

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said that quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) is "good to go" for the Week 12 game against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. Hurts received some extra treatment on his ankle on Wednesday and was listed as limited in practice, but he returned to a full practice session on Thursday and was never expected to be in danger of missing the Week 12 contest. Although he did score his 11th rushing touchdown of the year (leads all QBs) in last Thursday night's win over the division-rival Washington Commanders, Hurts was overshadowed by running back Saquon Barkley and will be looking to bounce back in a plus matchup against LA in primetime. The 26-year-old signal-caller is the QB3 in overall fantasy points through 11 weeks and is a must-start in all fantasy lineups. There's a good chance he'll score another TD on the ground this weekend.
Nov 22, 2024 1:05 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) returned to full participation in Thursday's practice, as expected, after he was limited on Wednesday. Hurts tweaked his ankle a little bit a week ago in the win over the division-rival Washington Commanders and was receiving a little extra maintenance for it on Wednesday. The 26-year-old was never in any doubt to play in Week 12 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football and should remain locked into all starting fantasy lineups as a game-changing, elite QB1. Hurts will be looking for a bounce-back performance after running back Saquon Barkley stole the show last week. The Rams defense has been a plus matchup for opposing QBs in terms of fantasy points, although they have yet to allow a rushing TD to a QB all year. In the last six games, Hurts has thrown for eight TDs and one pick and has rushed for nine TDs.
Nov 21, 2024 5:40 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (lower body) is being listed as limited on the team's practice report on Wednesday, according to a source. Wednesday was the final day of a strengthening program geared towards Hurts' lower body. He's expected to practice in full on Thursday and Friday and play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday night. The 26-year-old had a down Week 11 with 221 passing yards and no touchdowns, but he did manage to rush for 39 yards and a touchdown. Especially because of the Eagle's propensity to go for QB sneaks at the goal line, Hurts is an elite, must-start QB1 in fantasy each and every week. Hurts should bounce back on Sunday night against a shaky Rams defense. He comes into Week 12 as the QB3 in overall fantasy points through 11 weeks, behind only Lamar Jackson and Joe Burrow.
Nov 20, 2024 5:46 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts put together a solid fantasy outing using his legs during the 26-18 win over the Washington Commanders. The star signal-caller ended up with 221 yards and no touchdowns while throwing 18-for-28 and added 10 carries for 39 yards and one score. The trusty goal line carries came in handy yet again for Hurts in this matchup after not being able to find as much success scoring-wise through the air. One thing to monitor going into Week 12 is the head injury that Hurts suffered in the first half. He went through some concussion protocol before coming back for the second half, but fantasy managers will want to stay tuned in case anything comes out of that.
Nov 15, 2024 10:13 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will face off against the division-rival Washington Commanders on Thursday night football. The 26-year-old is the QB1 overall since the Eagles' Week 5 bye, averaging 28.1 fantasy points per game. His four-game streak of no turnovers came to an end early last week against the Dallas Cowboys, but Hurts was able to turn things around quickly and score four total touchdowns en route to a dominating win. Both Washington and Philadelphia's defenses have performed well over the past few weeks, but there is no reason to believe both high-powered offenses won't be trading scores back and forth the majority of the night. While some of his weapons were limited in practice in a short week, the Eagles will head into the game at full strength in that regard, making Hurts a top-three fantasy option for Week 11.
Nov 14, 2024 8:17 AM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 14 of 20 pass attempts for 202 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in Sunday's 34-6 victory over the Dallas Cowboys. He added two touchdowns and 56 yards on his seven carries. Hurts was sacked quite a bit in the first half, but Philadelphia molly-whopped their divisional opponent in this one -- controlling the game from start to finish. It's the fourth straight contest in which the 26-year-old scored a rushing touchdown and the third time in that stretch with more than one of them. The fifth-year QB could have had an even bigger day but was benched for teammate Kenny Pickett early in the fourth quarter with the game out of hand. It's another superb performance for Hurts, who has totaled 16 TDs with just two turnovers since the team's Week 5 bye. Philadelphia will get another divisional matchup in Week 11 when they square off against the visiting Washington Commanders.
Nov 10, 2024 9:17 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10. There was some concern that the 26-year-old was dealing with a surprise ankle injury after head coach Nick Sirianni let it slip that his missed practice on Wednesday was more than rest, but Hurts was left off of the final injury report and is a full go for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Cowboys. A.J. Brown (knee) and DeVonta Smith (hamstring) were a concern heading into the weekend, but both were full participants Friday and carry no injury designation. Dallas is reeling at the moment, with multiple injuries on offense and defense. Their defense could be getting Micah Parsons (ankle) back, but the team allows the fifth-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. With all his weapons at full health, Hurts is a smash start in Week 10.
Nov 8, 2024 8:50 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) is reportedly dealing with a potential ankle injury, according to Brandon Lee Gowton. Hurts was sidelined during Wednesday's practice due to rest, but head coach Nick Sirianni expressed he was dealing with an ankle injury while talking to the media. However, Sirianni then quickly clarified his statement and emphasized that he misunderstood the question and his absence was strictly rest-related. Seeing that Hurts returned to a full participant on Thursday suggests that this injury is very minor. Fantasy managers should expect Hurts to suit up on Sunday to face the Dallas Cowboys. The 26-year-old should be viewed as a high-end QB1, as he has scored over 30 PPR points in each of his past two games.
Nov 8, 2024 1:00 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 18 of 24 passes for 230 yards and two touchdowns, adding 13 carries for 67 yards and an additional score, during the team's 28-23 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This game marks the fourth in a row that the 26-year-old has not committed a turnover and he had a fantastic day as a passer despite losing A.J. Brown (knee) in the early third quarter. The brotherly shove was actually ineffective this week but Hurts still found his way into the end zone on an 18-yard run where he went over a defender to dive in for the score. We will need to wait for an update on Brown's status, but even if he is absent, Hurts will remain a must-start against a Dallas team that is reeling with injuries.
Nov 3, 2024 7:57 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts will face off against the 2-6 Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9. The 26-year-old is the QB2 in fantasy over the past three weeks since Philadelphia's bye and he made a statement last week posting four total touchdowns on the Bengals in Cincinnati. Now, Hurts faces a Jaguars defense that allows the second-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks. The Eagles offense has been firing on all cylinders as of late and Hurts has been turnover-free the past three weeks. While this game could become a route early for the Eagles, Hurts carries a solid scoring floor with what is possibly the highest ceiling of the week due to how good his matchup is.
Nov 1, 2024 7:51 PM EST
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 16 of 20 passes for 236 yards and a touchdown and took 10 carries for 37 yards and three additional scores during the team's 37-17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The Eagles offense was barely on the field in the first quarter due to a long Bengals offensive drive, leading to another week without points scored in the first 15 minutes of play. However, Philadelphia turned things up on both sides of the ball after this and the 26-year-old was everything for the offense in Week 8. Running back Saquon Barkley had a few scoring opportunities taken from him due to three brotherly shove touchdown runs by Hurts, but this was the best game the Eagles signal-caller has looked as a passer all season as well. This offense has been clicking since the bye week and Hurts has not turned the ball over while scoring a total of nine touchdowns in the past three weeks. Moving into Week 8, Hurts and the Birds face off against one of the worst defenses in the NFL, the Jacksonville Jaguars.
