Jalen Hurts rushes for 90 yards, touchdown in Week 1 win

Jalen Hurts completed 18 of his 32 pass attempts for 243 yards, no touchdowns, and no interceptions and rushed 17 times for 90 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Lions.

Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy managers would obviously prefer a touchdown pass or two most weeks, but those rushing numbers are why Hurts is such a valuable QB in fantasy. While he didn't throw any touchdown passes, he did display clear chemistry with new WR A.J. Brown, who caught 10 of his 13 targets for 155 yards. The Eagles have a tougher opponent on tap in Week 2 when they host the Vikings on Monday Night Football, but everyone who drafted Hurts likely did so as a QB1 should continue to start him.
