Jalen Hurts' Rushing Drastically Down This Season, Impacting Eagles Offense
Jalen Hurts' rushing production saw a significant decline this season, impacting the Eagles' offense. In a recent crucial game, he recorded just 14 rushing yards on 5 carries. His average carries dropped from 10 per game (first month) to 5, and rushing yards from 45 to 20. The Eagles' success correlates with Hurts' running volume. Despite maintaining a 4.6 YPC, his RPO usage and runs on RPOs were sharply down. The article suggests coaching decisions limited his running, making the offense easier to defend. A new offensive coordinator must re-integrate his mobility.
