Jalen Hurts Rushes for Two Touchdowns on Thursday

Friday, September 5, 12:55 AM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 19 of his 23 pass attempts for 152 yards and zero turnovers during Thursday's preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys. He also rushed 14 times for 62 yards and two touchdowns on the ground. All in all, it was a very strong game from Hurts, who played clean, turnover-free football while leading the team in rushing. The 27-year-old opened the season on an extremely positive note and will look to ride this momentum into the Eagles' Week 2 matchup against the reigning AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs.

Khalil Shakir News

Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman Both Cleared to Play in Week 1

Friday, September 5, 5:56 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receivers Khalil Shakir (ankle) and Keon Coleman (groin) were both removed from Friday's final injury report and will be active on Sunday night for the Week 1 showdown against the Baltimore Ravens. Shakir was a full practice participant all week, while Coleman upgraded to a full practice on Friday after he was limited the first two days of the week. When asked if he was concerned about playing on Sunday, Colemansaid, "Nah." It won't be easily sledding on Sunday night for Buffalo's offense, but quarterback Josh Allen will have his top two receivers available in Shakir and Coleman. For fantasy purposes, both Shakir and Coleman should be viewed as more of WR4/flex options against a stout Ravens offense in a Bills offense that isn't afraid to spread things around. Many fantasy pundits are projecting a Year 2 breakout for Coleman.
