The Philadelphia Eagles surprised many by acquiring quarterback Kenny Pickett, who previously played for the Pittsburgh Steelers. This move comes as Pittsburgh transitions to Russell Wilson as their quarterback. Pickett’s playing style differs from Eagles’ starter Jalen Hurts, particularly in rushing habits, with Hurts running significantly more than Pickett. The Eagles’ decision to bring in Pickett raises questions about potential changes in their offensive strategy under new coordinator Kellen Moore. There is speculation that the Eagles may aim to reduce Hurts’ running workload, possibly due to his undisclosed knee injury in the previous season. This quarterback switch could indicate a shift in how the Eagles approach their offense in the upcoming season.
