The Eagles' primary quarterback has led the league in rushing touchdowns over the past four years, which adds to 62 touchdowns from 2021.

"Same thing Lamar do with Derrick Henry. You know, just opens lanes. You got to respect it. You can't just crash the dive," Micah Parsons said of Hurts' touchdowns in the video.

Mike Sainristil, Commanders' cornerback, believes Hurts' character makes him stand out.

"A great quarterback, great quarterback. You know, he can beat with you with his arm. He can beat you with his legs. But it's his character," Sainristil said. "Great leader. Just the things he does off the field and the way he carries himself."

Fan opinions went to extremes. Some don't find Jalen Hurts that impressive.

Others believed he deserved a higher place.

"So win the Super Bowl and Super Bowl MVP and you move back 4 spots? Got it. What a joke," one fan said.

"I thought he might have been ranked higher on the list around No.10. A couple years ago he was ranked #3 on the list. His passing yards were lower this year than a couple years ago, but he played exceptionally well in the postseason," another fan said.
