Who Should I Start? Jalen Hurts or Trevor Lawrence

Wednesday, July 23, 5:09 PM

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has picked up where he left off in 2024 in the first day of training camp practice on Wednesday, per Eliot Shorr-Parks. Shorr-Parks writes that Hurts didn't do anything flashy but just showed good overall QB play. He took care of the ball and was never really in harms way while going 14-for-15 passing with no touchdowns or interceptions. Hurts had 26 reps on the day, with Shorr-Parks giving him a B grade. The 26-year-old's best pass of the day was down the sideline to receiver A.J. Brown for a pickup of around 20 yards. Even though Hurts isn't the most accurate or prolific passer, he's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 3 fantasy QB because of his rushing prowess. In the last four seasons over 62 regular-season games, Hurts has 52 rushing touchdowns. It gives him an extremely high fantasy ceiling.

Speaking at the team's first training camp practice on Wednesday, Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) said he's 100 percent healthy after missing seven games last year due to a shoulder injury and a concussion, per Jags beat writer John Oehser. Lawrence required season-ending surgery in December on his left (non-throwing) shoulder. "I feel really good," Lawrence said. "It's the best I felt in a long time physically." In addition to rehabbing in the offseason, the 25-year-old former first overall pick spent time honing in on his footwork. Lawrence so far hasn't lived up to his draft billing, but he was a Pro Bowler in 2022 and should be able to have a bounce-back season in head coach Liam Coen's offense in 2025. He'll have a nice one-two punch of Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter at wideout as well, making him a decent QB2 target with upside in superflex fantasy formats.
