Jalen Hurts can be difficult to gauge at press conferences. Most of his pressers have the same message of “keeping the main thing the main thing” and “playing to the standard.” There are other commonly used phrases in there, but the message is usually repeated.
When Hurts typically wants something vital out there, it will be said.
After Sunday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers , Hurts had an answer to a question left open to interpretation. Toward the end of his press conference, Hurts was asked if he and head coach Nick Sirianni will discuss what they wanted the message for the Philadelphia Eagles to be entering the bye week and leading into the final 13 games.
The answer Hurts gave was short.
“We have our moments.”
Was this answer an indicator of the relationship between Hurts and Sirianni? The Eagles head coach isn’t around the quarterback as much as in years past with a different role than before. Sirianni isn’t in the quarterback room as frequent, as that’s mainly the responsibility of offensive coordinator and play-caller Kellen Moore and quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier.
