Brown on draft day, giving Hurts a game-changing No. The only quality wideout was rookie DeVonta Smith, so Hurts largely relied on Dallas Goedert (76 targets) and his running backs (105 targets). Hurts ranked 29th last season with 28.8 attempts per game, as the Eagles finished last in passing percentage (48.8) following their mid-year switch to a run-heavy offense. His rushing output, including a league-high 50 scrambles, likely will regress a bit this season, and for his passing to pick up the slack he probably needs more attempts. He led quarterbacks in rushing yards (784) and became the ninth QB all-time with double-digit TDs on the ground. Despite that, he finished QB9 in fantasy thanks to incredible rushing production. Perhaps most concerning, Hurts threw five interceptions and only two TDs on attempts 20-plus yards downfield, magnifying the pre-draft concerns about his arm strength. He increased his on-target rate by nearly 20 percentage points compared to 2020 (55.4 to 73.8 percent) but finished only 26th in the league in completion percentage (61.3). Hurts made laudable improvements in accuracy last season, but it didn’t exactly turn him into a good passer. Given that rushing production, Hurts can challenge for QB1 status even if he isn't quite on Patrick Mahomes' level as a passer and isn't likely to match Josh Allen's total volume.
It’s possible Hurts’ goal-line attempts regress, but the league decided against outlawing the Eagles’ infamous “tush push" and longer-distance scores are also in play after back-to-back seasons with more than 750 rushing yards. While nearly 40 percent of those designed runs were QB sneaks, 14 came at the goal line, which helped him score 13 rushing TDs, second most in NFL history by a quarterback. Hurts’ running game gives him a solid fantasy floor - he led the league in designed runs by a quarterback last season and was fourth in scramble yards. Overall, his completion rate increased by more than five points to 66.5 percent (it was 52.9 as a rookie in 2020), his six interceptions were second fewest among QBs with at least 350 attempts and he finished third in YPA (8.0). He led the league in on-target percentage (80.5) and completion percentage (72.5) from the pocket and finished second in TD/INT ratio at 20/4. Brown joined DeVonta Smith and TE Dallas Goedert to help Hurts become one of the NFL's best passers. He made tremendous strides with his arm between Years 1 and 2 as a starter, and he'd always been a threat with his legs. 3 fantasy quarterback last year should not have been shocking.
Whatever it is.A MVP-caliber season and a run to the Super Bowl were perhaps surprising, but Hurts finishing as the No. If I can get by with a cane, I’ll do that. “There’s tons of people that use walkers in this world. “And if that’s the case, big darn deal,” he said in April. He lost almost 150 pounds as he spent a total of about six months in hospitals and a nursing home, with doctors eventually discovering his cancer after Gold dealt with persistent hiccups late last year.Īs he regains his ability to walk, Gold might return to the broadcast booth using a walker when Alabama hosts Middle Tennessee State on Sept. Gold, 69, missed the entire 2022 season after temporarily losing the ability to walk. "It was something you hope for but you just never know."
Gold said he will have another doctor's visit in three months, and another PET scan in six months. There's no cancer to be found anywhere.'"

"And the doctor walked in, and it was a female, and she said, 'You're free and clear. "I don't mind telling you: we were bags of nerves, all of us. That led to last Friday's follow-up scan to check for any sign of cancer. Gold rang the bell for his final chemotherapy treatment in mid-April. Gold spoke in detail in April about his year-long health issues, which included being diagnosed with cancer in late December and undergoing chemotherapy this winter. Now it's just a matter of getting stronger and being ready for the start of the season." "No cancer," Gold told WNSP radio in Mobile, Alabama. Longtime Alabama football radio play-by-play broadcaster Eli Gold updated his health Thursday, saying he is "free and clear of cancer" after undergoing a PET scan last week.
