Bleeding Green Nation on MSNThe Evolution of Jalen Hurts: Part 2 - The Rise of Hurts’ Touch PassingIn Part 1 of this series, we looked at how Jalen Hurts learned to stop forcing the issue outside of structure. In part 2, I’m going to look at one of the more underrated, yet arguably more impressive areas of his growth, his development as a touch passer.
Despite a year that saw Hurts hoist up the Lombardi Trophy and earn Super Bowl MVP, the quarterback barely cracked ESPN’s top 10. Instead, quarterbacks like Jared Goff (No. 8), Justin Herbert (No. 7), Matthew Stafford (No. 6), and Jayden Daniels (No. 5) were ranked above him.
Gripes that the Eagles' QB and Super Bowl MVP is constantly slighted grow louder with each national ranking, but Hurts is truly a difficult comparison.
Pro Football Focus ranked Hurts as a No. 5 quarterback; however, he was placed in the high-end starters category. Above him, in the elite category, was Josh Allen (No. 4), Lamar Jackson (No. 3), Joe Burrow (No. 2), and Patrick Mahomes (No. 1).
