Jalen Hurts Benched at Halftime
Hurts' Historic Run Ends Abruptly
Eagles Star QB Pulled Amid Dismal Performance
In a stunning turn of events, Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni benched star quarterback Jalen Hurts at halftime of Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. Hurts, who holds a remarkable 26-2 record as a starter, had struggled mightily in the first half, throwing two interceptions and fumbling the ball once.
Sirianni's decision to bench Hurts came as the Eagles trailed 20-3 at the break. Despite Hurts' incredible success in his first two seasons with the team, his performance in recent weeks has raised concerns. The Eagles have lost their last three games, and Hurts has thrown seven interceptions in that span.
The benching of Hurts marks a significant moment in the Eagles' season. The team has relied heavily on Hurts' dynamic play in the past, but his recent struggles have forced Sirianni to make a change. It remains to be seen whether Hurts will regain his starting role, or if the Eagles will move forward with a new quarterback under center.
