Hurts has experienced a revolving door of offensive coordinators throughout his career. Next up, he'll have to adapt to Kellen Moore's system.
Eagles’ Jalen Hurts stresses importance of coaching continuity as he absorbs another offensive scheme
The Eagles quarterback, once again embarking on an offseason that will include learning a new offensive system, spoke Wednesday for the first time since the teamChange has been a constant for Hurts during his career, even dating back to college. He has gone consecutive seasons with the same play-caller and position coach just once since his high school career and partially attributed his success in an MVP-caliber 2022 season to having that level of continuity for the first time.
“As a player, I definitely yearn for the sustainability and the consistency there,” Hurts said. “As a coach Stout serves for his offensive line room, as a quarterback, I yearn for those things in a play-caller and a quarterback coach because you kind of see how consistency in those areas can breed excellence. His track record kind of shows that. It’s definitely something that I desire.”
It hasn’t always been an impediment for Hurts to switch systems so often, though. He showed steady progress with different play-callers each year at Alabama and took a significant leap after transferring to Oklahoma to play in an Air Raid system under Lincoln Riley. In the early stages of learning Moore’s system, Hurts said his experience the last few years is reminiscent of that college experience.
Hurts credited Johnson, his former coach he has known for 20-plus years and developed a strong relationship with, for playing a major role in his growth the last few seasons. Johnson took a passing-game coordinator job with the Washington Commanders in February, a few weeks after the Eagles announced his firing.
