Although the MVP title is yet to be decided formally, the Eagles fans were so impressed with the 24-year-old’s performance against the Lions on Sunday, that they sang in unison for him to be given the MVP title.
Hurts has rushed for 609 yards and scored nine running touchdowns this season. With nine rushing touchdowns, he is tied for fifth in the league. All things considered, the Eagles’ third-year quarterback is a strong favourite to win the league MVP this year.
Along with Patrick Mahomes, Hurts will be a contender to win the NFL MVP. Cowboys LB Micah Parsons, Bills quarterback Josh Allen and 49ers DE Nick Bosa, and Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa are some of the other contenders with Hurts and Mahomes to win the title.
A thorough New York Giants fan, former president Bill Clinton attended the game today.
