Overview
- ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports that people around the league believe GM Howie Roseman could target a quarterback fairly early in the 2026 draft.
- The expectation, per those conversations, is a Day 2 selection who would sit behind Jalen Hurts in 2026 before any potential transition.
- The chatter predated but grew louder after Hurts’ four-interception Monday night loss to the Chargers and evaluations citing his pocket-passing limitations.
- Hurts is in a five-year, $255 million deal signed in 2023, with guarantees easing in 2027, a window analysts say could make a change more feasible.
- Philadelphia is projected to hold four picks in the first three rounds of the 2026 draft, strengthening the option to invest in a developmental quarterback.
