Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts told reporters last week that he was still getting the hang of the new Kellen Moore offense that looks "95 percent" different than previous systems he's worked under. 

But if you ask head coach Nick Sirianni, Hurts is right on track with the playbook. 

"I think [QB Jalen Hurts] he’s done a really nice job adapting to some of the different things that we’re doing," Sirianni said when asked how Hurts performed during OTAs and . "Some of the different — there’s different concepts. There’s similar concepts, but in those similar concepts sometimes we’re asking him to read it differently than we have in the past. There’s similar things with the way the routes are being run, and there’s some differences of how we’ve run it in the past, as well, that goes with how the play is supposed to be designed.

"I think he’s done a really nice job of handling the things that are similar. I think he’s done a very nice job handling things that are similar but as his job has changed a little bit and done a really nice job of really grinding away to be a master at the offense and all the things that come with it."

For much of the training camp portion open to media, reports surfaced that backup quarterback Kenny Pickett had been outperforming Jalen Hurts. 

Some even went as far as to say Pickett looked like he could steal Hurts' job. 

But Sirianni put that silly narrative to rest, explaining that there's a lot more going on behind the scenes that reporters don't get to see. 

"I think there’s a lot that you guys can’t see. You get to see — you’re fortunate to come out to a couple practices during OTAs and then obviously the mini-camp, but there’s so much work that’s happening in here," Sirianni said. "I’m really pleased with the way he’s led this football team, and he’s just done a nice — like I said, he’s done a really nice job of learning and doing the little differences of what the offense is, and then also his leadership has been — really, you see he’s one of the main leaders on this team, and you see how hard the guys are working. 

"Again, you don’t get to see all that. You don’t get to see it in the weight room and on the practice field all the time, but he’s leading day in and day out, and I’m really happy that he’s the leader he is."

Hurts has done this whole learning a new offense thing four times now, and before last year's collapse, came pretty close to back-to-back Super Bowl runs.

He's got this.
