Jalen Hurts Delivers 3 Scores in Eagles' First Padded Indoor Practice

3 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Aug 3

Summary

  • Three touchdowns highlighted Hurts’ strongest camp session Monday, as he rebounded after the first-team defense had controlled two of the previous three practices.
  • Heavy rain pushed Philadelphia indoors for its fourth practice and first in pads, while a review-day script let the offense run already installed concepts rather than new ones.
  • Hurts hit Elijah Moore on a 30-plus-yard strike, found DeVonta Smith for a red-zone score and two-point conversion, and added a 10-yard quarterback-draw touchdown.
  • The day was not flawless: Quinyon Mitchell picked off Hurts on an apparent miscommunication for the quarterback’s first interception of camp.
  • Lane Johnson missed a second straight practice for a personal reason, three rookies remained out after Saturday injuries, and first-round pick Makai Lemon exited with an update due Tuesday.
