The 2020 second-round pick has blossomed from a likely backup quarterback to a Pro Bowler, and MVP candidate entering year No. 4. Hurts has started 34 of 45 games in his career, amassed a 22-8 record as a starter in the regular season since 2021 (second behind Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes), and has won 17 of his last 18 regular-season starts. With Philadelphia returning to practice, we’re looking at the top 10 performances in Hurts four years with the Eagles.
