This is great news for the Philadelphia Eagles.
According to NFL insider Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Jalen Hurts and new Philadelphia Eagles OC Sean Mannion "have hit it off."
This is great news for the Eagles since Hurts didn't have a good relationship with Kevin Patullo.
Fowler also reported that Hurts has been "throwing offsite" with some Eagles receivers. That group doesn't include A.J. Brown, who is expected to get traded to the New England Patriots in June.
"I'm hearing the two have hit it off, and Jalen Hurts likes how Sean Mannion structures the offense, how he talks about how they're going to attack things because it's going to look different," Fowler said on SportsCenter, via Bleacher Report. "It's going to be more under center for Jalen Hurts, more play-action than he had done in the past. So, our sources have told us that he's at times been reluctant to some of those changes but right he's as open as he's ever been to some of those. He's also been throwing offsite with some of his receivers, DeVonta Smith, who's his new No. 1, new veteran Elijah Moore. He's been getting after it, trying to get ready for this new offense. Eagles are going to look a lot different in 2026."
Hurts finished the 2025 season with 3,224 passing yards, 25 passing touchdowns, 421 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns. He completed 64.8% of his passes.
The Eagles won the NFC East again. However, they lost to the San Francisco 49ers in the 2026 playoffs' wild-card round.
The Eagles signed Hurts to a five-year, $255 million extension in April 2023. There is little guaranteed money left in Hurts' deal after the 2026 season.
Hurts and Brown used to be best friends. However, that is no longer the case.
It will be fascinating to see how Hurts and the Eagles perform next season. Hurts is under major pressure to play well despite winning Super Bowl LIX MVP.
Hurts enters next season with 17,891 passing yards, 110 passing touchdowns, 3,554 rushing yards and 63 rushing touchdowns in his career. He's made the Pro Bowl three times.
