(Sports Spectrum) The future is certainly sunny in Philadelphia for Eagles rookie quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Hurts led his team to an upset win over the New Orleans Saints, 24-21, in his first career NFL start on Sunday while showing glimpses of potential stardom.
He completed 17 of 30 passes for 167 yards and one touchdown and did not throw an interception or get sacked. He often used his legs to escape the pocket and ran for another 106 yards on 18 carries.
The Eagles jumped out to a 17-0 lead by halftime and held on for the three-point victory.
