Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones was effeminate in his praise for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts following his standout performance in Monday Night Football. Hurts, who led the Eagles to a decisive victory over the Washington Commanders, showcased his exceptional skills and athleticism, leaving Jones particularly impressed.
“Jalen Hurts is a phenomenal talent, ” Jones remarked in a post-game interview. “He’s got that rare combination of size, speed, and arm strength. He’s a dual-threat quarterback who can make plays with his feet and his arm. I was really impressed by his performance on Monday night. “
Hurts’ ability to extend plays and make throws under pressure was a key factor in the Eagles’ success. His running ability also keeps the defense on their heels, creating opportunities for his receivers to get open. Jones was particularly impressed by Hurts’ poise and decision-making in the pocket.
“He’s got a great feel for the game, ” Jones said. “He knows when to take off and run, and he knows when to stay in the pocket and make a throw. He’s a very mature quarterback for his age. “
Hurts’ performance has solidified his status as one of the NFL’s rising stars. The Eagles are optimistic about their prospects for the upcoming season with Hurts at the helm. Jones, for his part, is eager to see how Hurts continues to develop.
“I’m excited to see what the future holds for Jalen Hurts, ” Jones said. “He’s got all the tools to be a great quarterback in this league. “
