Quarterback Jalen Hurts is poised to return to the Philadelphia Eagles’ lineup when they open the playoffs Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Hurts was cleared under the return-to-play provisions of the NFL concussion protocol, Eagles Coach Nick Sirianni said Friday.

When Hurts was injured, the Eagles deployed backup passer Kenny Pickett, who led an admirable attempt to take over the game against Washington but, ultimately, fell. As the playoffs drew nearer, Philadelphia was aware that they were out of reach of the 1-seed in the NFC but also out of reach of the other division-winners behind them.

Chase Daniel breaks down what Jalen Hurts needs to do for the Philadelphia Eagles to pick up a Divisional Round win over the Los Angeles Rams in the City of Brotherly Love.

But it's hard to ignore Hurts' 43-12 record as a starter since the Eagles were 2-5 midway through the 2021 season. The Eagles have gone 14-3 in both 2022 and this season, tying the best regular-season records in franchise history.

On the latest episode of the “Scoop City” podcast, we touched on a point that Chase has been making for a while now: Jalen Hurts might be a good quarterback, but he isn’t throwing like one right now.

The passing game against the Packers could've been more sharp but Jalen Hurts knows his "role in each game will be different" to get the job done.
