2026 Outlook
Eagles front loaded offseason weapons: signed WR Deejauan Thomas, then drafted first-round WR Makai Lemon and second-round athletic TE Eli Stowers. A.J. Brown's likely departure (estimated trade to Patriots post-June 1) means Eagles need production uplift across the board. Lemon and Stowers give Hurts two new legitimate middle-of-field targets in new OC Sean Mannion's system. Limited run game help (no RB draft investment), so passing volume stays high. Hurts' dual-threat upside remains elite, but weapons depth is now built-by-committee rather than star-dependent (per [[2026 NFL Draft: NFC Winners and Losers (Fantasy Football)]]).
Mannion's offensive philosophy emphasizes QB footwork, timing, and rhythm — foundational to modern West Coast offense schemes (similar to McVay/Shanahan). This should help Hurts improve consistency and decision-making against zone coverage, historically his weakness. Mannion spent time as Packers QB coach under Matt LaFleur, so Hurts will benefit from teaching focused on pre-snap reads and properly-timed route combinations (per [[New Eagles OC Sean Mannion teases big changes — here's what they could be]]).
