Jalen Hurts Practicing In Full
3 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) was able to get in a full practice on Wednesday. Hurts was held out of the Week 18 regular season finale against the Dallas Cowboys last weekend so he wouldn't aggravate an ankle sprain that he's been managing late in the season. But the 23-year-old looks to be nearing full strength in time for the wild-card matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Hurts hasn't gone over 300 yards passing in a game since Week 4 and the Eagles have been the best rushing offense all year (159.7 yards per game), but there is plenty of upside for the second-year QB this weekend against a Bucs defense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to QBs this year. Hurts' rushing ability gives him considerable upside at his $6,100 DraftKings salary, which ranks eighth among QBs during wild-card weekend.
