Jalen Hurts' return timeline is unknown; his absence affects the Eagles offense.NegativeRoleOct 15, 2026
Currently owned in a roster with Tyler Shuck; source discusses whether to drop Jalen Wright to add Jaden Daniels, suggesting Hurts is the primary QB but context indicates consideration of alternatives.NegativeInjuryOct 15, 2026
Out for Week 6 with a superficial blood clot; timeline for return is unclear. Dave Richard advises hesitating to drop him until more information emerges, noting that by the time he returns the offensive line may be healthier and Devontae Smith and Saquon Barkley may be back, making a snap drop potentially regrettable.NegativeMatchupOct 12, 2026
Hurts and the Eagles offense face Washington, which is giving up the second-most fantasy points to quarterbacks; only Daniel Jones has failed to score 30 fantasy points against Washington. The Eagles have an easy schedule going forward, but their offensive line is terrible, which could limit Hurts' effectiveness.NegativeUsageOct 12, 2026
Against Jacksonville, Hurts threw 40 passes on only 25 minutes of possession, reflecting a pass-heavy game plan forced by injuries to running backs and receivers; the source characterizes this as a one-off adjustment rather than a sustainable shift in offensive philosophy.NegativeProjectionOct 9, 2026
In a start-sit comparison, Jayden Daniels is preferred over Jalen Hurts versus the Jaguars; the source suggests Hurts could potentially be dropped from rosters.NegativeProjectionOct 8, 2026
The source does not want to start Jalen Hurts this week despite him leading the NFL in pass attempts and performing well overall. Reasoning: Philadelphia is down three starting offensive linemen, down number-one receiver DeVontae Smith (not expected to play), and uncertain on Dallas Goddard; Jacksonville's defense is outstanding with strong pressure and secondary play, and excellent run defense; without Saquon Barkley and at full offensive line strength, the tush push may be ineffective. The source ranks multiple quarterbacks ahead of Hurts: Deshaun Watson, C.J. Stroud, Sam Darnold, Jacoby Brissett, and Jameis Winston.NegativeProjectionOct 7, 2026
Jalen Hurts faces a difficult outlook with three-fifths of the Eagles' starting offensive line missing (Lane Johnson retired, Landon Dickerson out, Cam Juergens in concussion protocol) against the Jaguars' top-ranked AFC defense.NegativeProjectionOct 5, 2026
Jalen Hurts is struggling significantly, having not played well for three consecutive games. Square. Get suggests he should not be considered a starting fantasy quarterback if he remains without his top weapons (Smith, Goddard, Barkley) in Week 5.NegativeProjectionOct 3, 2026
The source suggests a bold prediction that this could be Jalen Hurts' final year as an NFL starting quarterback, noting that the Eagles might move on from him.NegativeProjectionOct 2, 2026
Jalen Hurts has been downgraded to the 13-17 range among quarterbacks following the news that DeVonta Smith is out.NegativeProjectionOct 2, 2026
The source advises against trusting Jalen Hurts right now due to a tough two-game stretch and the loss of his best receiver, Devontae Smith. The source suggests looking for backup options.NegativeProjectionSep 30, 2026
Jalen Hurts is viewed as a disappointment relative to his high draft capital, with analysts noting a decline in fantasy points per game over three consecutive weeks and a significant drop in rushing attempts (averaging 5.3 per game compared to higher historical marks). While he is still averaging over 20 fantasy points, concerns persist regarding the new offensive scheme, his lack of play-action usage, and the team's high three-and-out rate.NegativeUsageSep 14, 2026
Hurts threw 24 passes in Week 1, providing context for Dallas Goddard's five targets and the Eagles' passing volume.NegativeProjectionSep 14, 2026
Jalen Hurts scored 30 fantasy points in Week 1 in a new-look Eagles offense, but the speaker was disappointed in the performance; the offense looked disjointed, he was under pressure frequently, and he held the ball too long, checking down or running instead of looking downfield between the numbers. The speaker notes he should credit Dallas Goddert for much of the 30-point output and did not think Hurts played well, though the offense's dysfunction rather than Hurts' play was the primary issue.NegativeRoleSep 4, 2026
Jalen Hurts was selected as the quarterback on Team 6 in round eight, following a receiver-heavy build in the first three rounds.PositiveProjectionSep 3, 2026
Jalen Hurts is preferred over Jaden Daniels by the source due to his offensive environment, superior offensive line, and better durability outlook.PositiveProjectionJul 17, 2026
Jalen Hurts is mentioned in passing as part of a discussion about JSN (Jalen Hurts' teammate) being phenomenal in his third year.PositiveProjectionJul 13, 2026
Jalen Hurts has a track record of elite fantasy production and losing A.J. Brown is offset by a solid depth group at receiver, keeping him in the conversation to be a top five fantasy QB due to his rushing ability and the tush push.PositiveValueJul 13, 2026
Jalen Hurts is in tier two for Heath and often falls to round eight, making him a valuable option especially in four-point per-passing touchdown leagues where his value relative to other quarterbacks increases.NegativeRoleJun 30, 2026
Sean Mannion's system asks Hurts to do things he's never done before, including more under-center snaps and motion, which is a significant departure from Philadelphia's typical shotgun-heavy, low-motion approach and may not be a good fit.PositiveValueJun 19, 2026
Hurts is going 80th overall but ranked around 67th, representing excellent value. He's the only quarterback worth a darn at good value, consistently putting up Josh Allen-like numbers early in seasons before declining in December.PositiveProjectionJun 18, 2026
Jalen Hurts has maintained a 1.4% interception rate or lower in three of the last four years, demonstrating exceptional ball security and conservative play that wins games.PositiveRoleJun 18, 2026
The Eagles have done an amazing job tailoring their offense to Jalen Hurts' strengths, creating a perfect fit for his skill set.PositiveProjectionJun 18, 2026
Jalen Hurts is a Super Bowl champion who has accomplished everything needed since entering the NFL as a non-first-round talent, and his win-loss record speaks for itself despite unfair criticism.NegativeValueJun 8, 2026
If Jalen Hurts is not on the Eagles next year, his fantasy value is likely to drop significantly, potentially by five to six spots in dynasty rankings.NegativeRoleJun 1, 2026
The loss of A.J. Brown is expected to impact Jalen Hurts' performance, potentially lowering his draft position.PositiveValueMay 27, 2026
Jalen Hurts is still viewed as a keeper, but there are concerns about his long-term safety due to the Eagles' contract situation.NegativeProjectionNo date
Ranked QB6 in round 6 ADP; positioned after the top-five tier of Drake May, Joe Burrow, Jaden Daniels, and ahead of the second tier beginning with Jackson Dart and Dak Prescott.PositiveProjectionNo date
Jalen Hurts has been really consistent, averaging 21.8 fantasy points per game last year, which was his worst output in five years, indicating sustained elite-level production and reliability at the quarterback position.NegativeValueNo date
Hurts was going 38th in last year's ADP when the show aired; he moved up about three spots from his previous year's ADP, indicating modest upward movement in quarterback valuation.NegativeValueNo date
Currently at 67th overall ADP, but expected to rise approximately one round higher (into round two) as drafts progress into late August, reflecting increased demand for top-five quarterback options.NegativeProjectionNo date
Jalen Hurts' fantasy production has declined every year for five years in a row, with a pattern of strong first-half performance followed by second-half decline. Last year the decline was more attributable to offensive struggles than injuries. He ran about 2.5 fewer times per game than usual and received fewer pass attempts since the Eagles acquired Saquon Barkley and became more run-heavy. However, he is penciled in for at least 10 rushing touchdowns annually, and with Sean Mannion's new system, he could have a very nice season if the offense syncs with him. He is QB6 at 67th overall ADP, which is the right price.NegativeBustNo date
Jalen Hurts was one of the first five quarterback picks last year and is classified as a slight bust by the source, underperforming relative to his draft capital.PositiveProjectionNo date
Getting knocked too much in narrative; will be better throwing over the middle than previous narrative suggests; this is where Makai Lemon's opportunity lies in Philadelphia offense.PositiveValueNo date
ADP of 78.9 on CBS and slightly higher on Fantasy Pros, not among the first five quarterbacks off the board, but the source argues he should be; has gotten fantasy managers off to great starts each of the last three seasons, and while he has historically fallen off late in the year, the source contends that if he helps you reach the fantasy playoffs, that's sufficient value, and there's no guarantee he'll decline just because the calendar reaches late December.
