STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Hurts' rushing upside has evaporated; elite QB days are over.

Through five games, Hurts has recorded only one rushing touchdown, eliminating the rushing upside that previously defined his fantasy ceiling. In Week 5 against the Bears, rushing accounted for just 1.5% of his fantasy points on two rushes for two yards. The source states 'the days of Jalen Hurts being an elite fantasy quarterback are on ice,' positioning him as QB20 and averaging 0.2 more fantasy points per game than Deshaun Watson but 0.6 fewer than Aaron Rodgers.
