Philadelphia Plans To Name Week 16 Starting QB On Monday

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts delivered a masterful performance during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals, compiling 399 yards of combined offense to go along with four touchdowns.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole Sr. was held to two receptions (on two targets) for 22 yards during Sunday's loss to the Ravens, a crash landing back to reality after his sterling performance in Week 14.

Adrian Peterson Cannot Find End Zone During Week 15
