        Jalen Hurts' Passing Comes Back in Second Half

        By Matt Schauf | Updated on Sun, Sep 21 2025 11:47 PM UTC

        The Eagles posted muted passing production over the first two weeks, and Sunday's game appeared headed for the same (or worse). Jalen Hurts hit halftime with just 17 yards on 4-of-8 passing as his team trailed 19-7. But he went 17-of-24 for 209 yards (8.7 yards per attempt) and 3 TDs in the second half. Hurts combined that with 40 yards and a TD rushing for his best fantasy line so far this season.

        The rushing never left, so the second-half passing rebound was the story here. Sunday's outing followed totals of just 152 and 101 passing yards the first two weeks -- both in narrow victories.

        Expect Philly to keep trying to work the pass offense more, especially with Saquon Barkely also off to a slow start. He's averaging just 3.3 yards per carry through three games.

        Hurts hasn't been close to hitting the bench, but he'll be even easier to like in an upside Week 4 matchup with the Buccaneers.
