PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jalen Hurts shrugged on a TD celebration and did his best to be like Mike.
Through spit and rain, a ceremony and a setback, Hurts and the Super Bowl champion Eagles weathered the storm and showed why they’re again a favorite to hoist a second straight Lombardi Trophy.
Hurts rushed for two touchdowns for the Eagles, who lost hot-tempered star defender Jalen Carter early for spitting on Dak Prescott, then withstood a rare weather delay and needed a late stop to beat the Dallas Cowboys 24-20 early Friday in a wild start to the NFL season.
