Jalen Hurts Working With New Weapon Shows AJ Brown is Done With Eagles

(USA TODAY Network via Reuters Connect)

The Philadelphia Eagles are very hopeful that things are going to change after a rather embarrassing 2025-26 season for an organization that's expected to win every time it steps on the field.

The Eagles are still one of the best teams in the NFL, and a couple of bad performances don't change that, but we all can admit that last year just wasn't up to par for an organization that's expected to win a Super Bowl with this current roster.

A lot of people have blamed that on Jalen Hurts, and whether that's fair or not only remains to be seen. Hurts has one of the toughest jobs in professional sports, as Eagles fans are ruthless and expect this team to win, even if it's unfair at times.

It's almost weird to say that a player with Hurts' career has something still to prove, but a lot of people around the league are looking for him to figure this thing out.

After what was a rather disappointing year for the Super Bowl-winning quarterback, Hurts understands that he needs to get comfortable with his receivers and help his team win. According to the latest, he's doing that with DeVonta Smith and his new veteran receiver, Elijah Moore.

"I'm hearing the two have hit it off, and Jalen Hurts likes how Sean Mannion structures the offense, how he talks about how they're going to attack things because it's going to look different. It's going to be more under center for Jalen Hurts, more play-action than he had done in the past. So, our sources have told us that he's at times been reluctant to some of those changes but right he's as open as he's ever been to some of those.

“He's also been throwing offsite with some of his receivers, DeVonta Smith, who's his new No. 1, new veteran Elijah Moore. He's been getting after it, trying to get ready for this new offense. Eagles are going to look a lot different in 2026,” Jeremy Fowler of ESPN , H/T BR.
