Jalen Hurts, and Nick Sirianni’s relationship has been at the forefront of Eagles-related conversations since the 32-9 debacle of a loss to the Buccaneers in the NFC wild-card game last January.
The melodrama constantly heats up anytime Hurts gives an intriguing sound bite, but on Wednesday, Hurts talked a different tune. Philadelphia is 2-2 and needs to enter the matchup against Cleveland with a sense of urgency. During his media session, Hurts admitted sharing “great moments” with Sirianni during the bye week, studying film, and growing their relationship.
Jalen Hurts’ bye week included “having great moments with Nick.”
“This is probably one of the most efficient bye weeks I’ve been a part of it, share those moments, talk through some things,” Hurts said. “Some great moments.”

Hurts went into the bye week on a down note after going 18 of 30 for 158 yards with a touchdown and a fumble in the loss.
Overall this season, Hurts has completed 68.2 percent of his passes for 930 yards, four touchdowns, and four interceptions, with an 85.7 quarterback rating while playing three games without his top weapon. More concerning, Hurts has now committed at least one turnover in nine consecutive games.
Hopefully, a positive week for two embattled figures can elevate the Eagles to another playoff run.
