Elevating his level of play in the type of game that could soon have major implications on the NFC’s playoff picture, Jalen Hurts conquered the task through a familiar go-to: the quarterback draw. A few first downs away from leaving Brazil’s Week 1 clash with a season-opening win, the 2022 Most Valuable Player runner-up calls his own number, faking a dropback before taking a pair of defenders with him for a powerful, chain-moving, eight-yard run. Particularly brilliant down the stretch, Hurts helped the Philadelphia Eagles defeat the Green Bay Packers in 34-29 fashion on Sept. 6, 2024. Hurts’ statistics ultimately read as follows: 20-of-34 for 278 yards and two touchdowns, and 13 carries for 33 yards on the ground.
