Hurts also has 167 rushing yards and averages 4.5 yards per carry.

Hurts’ play has made him one of the early MVP favorites in the NFL.

 

Hurts will try to continue that success in Week 4 against the Jacksonville Jaguars as the Eagles welcome former Super Bowl winning head coach Doug Pederson back to Lincoln Financial Field.
