Eagles Coach's Promising Update on Jalen Hurts' Progress in Pivotal Offseason
Sean Mannion said Hurts has been outstanding in meetings and that the Eagles are likely shifting toward a wide-zone scheme to better use his rushing ability.
- On Thursday, new Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Sean Mannion spoke with reporters for the first time, praising quarterback Jalen Hurts' progress and engagement during voluntary offseason team activities.
- Mannion is Hurts' 11th offensive coordinator across his college and professional career, representing the sixth play-caller since the quarterback entered the NFL in 2020.
- Describing his vision as a "blend," Mannion said the 2026 Eagles offense will evolve to maximize player strengths, prioritizing fundamentals and timing over scheme rigidity.
- "Jalen's been outstanding in the meetings," Mannion said, noting Hurts is a "really capable learner" who consistently stays after practice to refine fundamentals.
- ESPN labeled the 2026 season a "crossroads" for the 27-year-old Super Bowl MVP, and Mannion is tasked with correcting offensive stagnation that plagued last year's team.
