Jalen Hurts drops to No. 56 in NFL Top 100 after rough season

Summary

As the NFL announces its Top 100 players for 2026, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts falls from No. 19 to No. 56. Many analysts view this ranking as a reflection of Hurts’ challenging 2025 season, where he struggled despite throwing a career-high 25 touchdowns. Former Eagles safety Chauncey Gardner-Johnson defended Hurts’ drop on social media, stating he should be ranked higher. Hurts played under new offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo last season but will now face more changes as AJ Brown has been traded and a new coordinator is set to take over. Responses to the ranking are ongoing as fans and analysts dissect its implications for the quarterback's future performance.
