The Eagles shouldn’t trade him in 2025. They’re realistically competing for a Super Bowl this year and Jalen Hurts is averaging 1.5 missed games per season since he became a full-time starter. No football city knows the value of a high-level backup quarterback better than Philadelphia does.

The Cincinnati Bengals started the preseason against the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday, losing 34-27. There, the Bengals will played Joe Burrow and other starters for part of the first quarter as part of an effort to fix the slow-starting issues that have plagued the Zac Taylor era to date.
