PHILADELPHIA (AP) Jalen Hurts keeps the playbook confidential. As for his go-to music playlist, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback is an open book. He likes slow jams. The smooth stylings of R&B. You know, cool music. Calm music.Al Green and Anita Baker. Tony! Toni! Ton! and New Edition.Old soul kind of tunes.ADVERTISEMENT I just keep a running list of songs that I can go to 24/7, no matter Austin Jackson Jersey the scenario, Hurts wrote this week as he with a music streaming service.Hows this for a scenario: The Philadelphia Eagles would not mind if Hurts stuck in some AirPods, chilled out and listened to 4 hours, 14 minutes of all 50 songs in his set.

Over the last three games, all wins, Hurts has thrown eight touchdowns against just one interception. He has completed at least 74% of his pa ses in each of those starts.Its just him getting more and more comfortable with the plays that hes running and that he likes, and knowing where to go with the football, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni said.Thanks in large part to the tush push, Hurts has still rushed for seven touchdowns this season.Hurts has played through pain and has yet Solomon Kindley Jersey to even make the injury report.

I have this hunger in my heart, Hurts said. So were sitting here 8-1. So thats a very great feeling. Yet its about winning, but its about the standard, too. So we just want to continue to raise that standard and play to the standard. Play the type of ball we want to play.His standard includes staying mum on his injury.
