Jalen Hurts Looks to Continue his Ways as a Touchdown Machine

Friday, October 17, 8:05 PM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts now has multiple touchdowns in each of his last four games, scoring both on the ground and through the air last Thursday against the Giants. In Week 7 Hurts has a tougher challenge with a Vikings team sporting the second-best pass defense in the league, allowing just 157.6 yards per game. Philly is hungry for a victory after suffering back-to-back losses, so expect their offense to be full throttle. Plus, the chemistry between Hurts and his lead receiver A.J. Brown seems to have been mostly restored. Despite a daunting matchup, Hurts is still worthy of a solid QB1 slot.

Brock Purdy Could Return in Week 8

Sunday, October 19, 10:13 AM

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) could return against the Houston Texans in Week 8, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The team has "hope" that he'll be able to suit up next Sunday, but Pelissero notes that he has not logged a full practice since Week 4. Furthermore, the 49ers don't intend to rush Purdy back, and he won't return to the starting lineup until he's fully healthy once again. Next week's set of practices will be the true test in determining whether the former seventh-round pick is capable of playing. In the meantime, Mac Jones will lead the 49ers' offense in Week 7 against Houston.
