After winning the NFC championship in 2022, the Eagles saw enough in Jalen Hurts that they were prepared to make him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL.
That quarter-billion-dollar extension was criticized by many NFL analysts at the time, including me. But Hurts has been a dynamic and physically overpowering central cog at the middle of the Eagles’ young roster. He’s been an excellent face of the franchise, too.
Now that Hurts and the Eagles have won the Super Bowl, the main man in Philadelphia is likely due for a contract update in the next 12 months that will cement him as one of the highest-paid players in the NFL.
After all, winners get rewarded, and the Eagles’ odds will remain near the top of the Super Bowl betting market for the foreseeable future.
