Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts was spotted working out with his former position coach, Scot Loeffler, in a recent social media post. Loeffler was the Eagles' quarterbacks coach in 2025 but was not retained in that role for the 2026 season, with the team reassigning Parks Frazier to the position instead.

Why it matters

The continued relationship between Hurts and Loeffler raises questions about Hurts' standing with the team and whether he is at all miffed that Loeffler was not kept on the coaching staff. Hurts had previously praised Loeffler's 'wisdom' and 'structured way of thinking', suggesting the two had a strong working relationship.

The details

In a recent Instagram post, Hurts shared a photo of himself working out with Loeffler, his former quarterbacks coach from the 2025 season. The Eagles made changes to their coaching staff in the offseason, reassigning Frazier from 'pass game coordinator' to quarterbacks coach. However, it appears Hurts still values Loeffler's insights and is continuing to train with him despite Loeffler no longer being an official member of the Eagles' coaching staff.

  • Jalen Hurts shared the workout photo on his Instagram on April 18, 2026.
  • Scot Loeffler was the Eagles' quarterbacks coach in the 2025 season.

What they’re saying

“I don't know that that's necessarily because of Scot that we've been under center. I think overall coaching points and the value he's brung, the perspective he's brought … and … the knowledge of the game. A lot of wisdom in the game. He's coached the best of them. He's been around it, he's called games before. So, his perspective have been very valuable for me. And his process and his structured way of thinking has been very influential. So, hopefully we can keep him around.”

The takeaway

Hurts' continued work with Loeffler, despite the coach no longer being on the Eagles' staff, suggests the quarterback values the relationship and the insights Loeffler provided. This raises questions about Hurts' standing with the team and whether he is at all displeased with the coaching changes, even if he publicly praised the new quarterbacks coach, Frazier.
