‘I Won’t Guarantee Somebody Gets Fired’ — Ex-Eagles Linebacker Claims Philly Will Take Action as Jalen Hurts’ INT Video Goes Viral
The Philadelphia Eagles’ social media team has found itself at the center of criticism after sharing a clip involving Jalen Hurts. The video showed Quinyon Mitchell intercepting a pass from the Eagles quarterback, and it didn’t take long for the post to gain traction on social media.
The Philadelphia Eagles’ social media team recently found itself in controversy after sharing a video of Jalen Hurts' interception during a practice session. The clip, which quickly went viral, featured Quinyon Mitchell returning the pass and sparked criticism for showcasing the quarterback’s mistake to a large audience. Former Eagles linebacker Emmanuel Acho believes that the decision to share the video could potentially lead to someone losing their job.
Acho acknowledged that while he wouldn't guarantee a firing, the situation warranted strong criticism and could result in someone being cussed out and potentially terminated. Other critics, including former offensive lineman Geoff Schwartz, also questioned the decision, calling it an "odd choice for a social media clip." Jalen Hurts, who has faced scrutiny for his performance as a quarterback, has struggled to meet expectations, with his best passing touchdown total at 25 and his rushing touchdown count dropping to a career low of eight.
The Eagles, however, have shown a willingness to make significant moves when necessary, which could impact Hurts and head coach Nick Sirianni's job security as they head into the upcoming season. Philadelphia's roster includes several key players, but the team's performance in the previous season and the trade of A.J. Brown have added pressure to Hurts' 2026 campaign.
