Jalen Hurts remains the Philadelphia Eagles' starting quarterback, but speculation arises around his future following disappointing offensive performances. ESPN's Dan Graziano identifies the Eagles among 16 teams facing quarterback uncertainty ahead of the 2026 season. With significant changes, including a new offensive coordinator and the trade of star receiver A.J. Brown, Hurts faces pressure to lead a productive offense. He is under contract through 2028 with substantial guarantees for 2026 and 2027. If the Eagles miss the playoffs again, they might explore a trade, although this remains an unlikely scenario.
