The Philadelphia Eagles have managed to make it a game with a potential comeback brewing versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Even quarterback Jalen Hurts has managed to get in on the action.
The Eagles rookie found tight end Richard Rodgers for an 18-yard gain and his first career completion:

One of the more intriguing aspects of Hurts taking the snap was quarterback Carson Wentz lining up at wide receiver. Eagles head coach Doug Pederson indicated before the 2020 NFL season that they would look to utilize two-QB packages in certain situations.
The completion help set the pace for the Eagles as they ultimately capped off a 10-play, 80-yard drive with a touchdown pass from Wentz to wide receiver Travis Fulgham, who's having a massive day.
While it is encouraging to see this package get off to a promising start, it will inevitably raise further debate among fans regarding a potential controversy under center following Wentz's struggles this season for the Eagles.
