Another offseason means another new offense for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts to master.

Hurts spoke to the media during mandatory minicamp on Thursday where he dove into what it's been like learning Kellen Moore's system, revealing that it's far from what the Eagles have ran in the past.

“This whole offseason has been about learning,” Hurts said. “You get to a point where you feel comfortable with this, but that time comes when you can rep it, rep it, rep it later on, but right now it’s been a lot of new inventory — the majority of it, probably 95 percent of it being new, it’s just been that process. And it’s been a fun process because you get to see what works for other people. The number of coaches I’ve had since I’ve been here, I’ve taken in a lot of new knowledge and new understanding."

95 percent is a big change and while it's exciting, it could also be a bit concerning considering the Eagles had a system that worked not too long ago when they made it to the Super Bowl in 2022 and then went 10-1 at the start of last year before they collapsed.

Hurts did mention that there was some familiarity to the scheme with Nick Sirianni mixing his plays in, though the details of it, along with new responsibilities for each player, are what he's still trying to grasp.

Regardless of still having a lot to learn this offseason, Hurts has no worries about meeting expectations this fall.

After all, he is used to adapting to a new offensive system after having to do it three other times.

"I think the goal coming in was to learn Kellen's offense and master it," Hurts said. "I think that's been a process and by the end of it, I want it to be mine. And have it in my own way. I think that's kind of a credit to, again, the lack of continuity with that. It being a thing where I kind of had to take all these new things and new voices and still go out there and be successful and efficient. I think that's exactly what's gonna happen again."
