Eagles Weigh Next Move on Jalen Hurts’ Contract as QB Market Outpaces His 2023 Deal

ESPN reports Philadelphia could revisit his terms next spring or summer to realign with recent quarterback payouts.

Overview

  • Hurts’ average salary of about $51 million per year now places him around 10th among quarterback contracts.
  • He has $51.5 million guaranteed for 2026 and remains under contract through 2028.
  • He signed before Lamar Jackson, Joe Burrow and Justin Herbert, and ESPN says he may not want to be first to reset the market this time.
  • Newer agreements, including Brock Purdy’s five-year, $265 million deal, have pushed Hurts further down the pay scale.
  • ESPN notes his 2025 pocket passing has been erratic, yet he continues to stack wins after a Super Bowl title and game MVP.
