Jalen Hurts isn’t the only Eagles star facing pressure this season.
Just about every NFL voice keeps finding ways to spin stories about the pressure that Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is under this season. The reason why is understandable. Playing quarterback in the NFL is a big deal, but Hurts isn’t alone.
There are several players who are under pressure to perform this season. The goal is simple. They’re trying to land a bigger contract from the organization or put themselves in a position to land a bigger deal in free agency.
Currently, Philadelphia has 25 players on their roster who are slated to become free agents in 2023. Three names stand out next year, but three of the names stand out for different reasons.
Some are bigger names than others. All are in the final year of their current deals. One is on a one-year, prove-it deal. There’s another common thread that binds them. All have stated they’re happy in the City of Brotherly Love and would rather stay here than go somewhere else.
So, here we are. The 2022-2023 NFL season hasn’t even started yet, and we’re already discussing what happens when it ends. That sounds about right, doesn’t it? Buckle up. We have much to discuss.
