people just grow apart<\/a>\u201d when asked about Hurts and that he thought both men accepted that sometimes \u201cyou just you find yourself drifting away\u201d despite being closer when Brown first joined the Eagles. Brown said he still hopes Hurts accomplishes \u201ceverything his heart desires\u201d and Hurts said he couldn\u2019t push back at someone else\u2019s feelings. <\/p>\n\u201cI\u2019m not in the place to challenge anyone\u2019s perspective on anything,\u201d Hurts said at a press conference. \u201cSeemingly so, it was. That\u2019s where I am. I\u2019ve always been focused on the collective. I\u2019ve always put my energy towards that. As a leader, I\u2019ve always put an onus on giving maximum effort to achieve the shared mission we have in the team.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hurts said before the trade that nothing can take away what he and Brown accomplished as members of the Eagles. He returned to that theme when asked if he\u2019s disappointed about how things came to an end. <\/p>\n
\u201cYou come into it and you have a sense of pride in how it began, and definitely what we were able to accomplish,\u201d Hurts said. \u201cThe same thing I said last time, nothing can take that away. For the great things that we did, now it\u2019s time to focus on achieving great things with this new iteration of the team.\u201d<\/p>\n
Hurts has a new offensive coordinator to go with a revamped receiving corps, so there will be plenty of on-field matters to keep the quarterback occupied heading into the regular season. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts spoke to reporters on Wednesday for the first time since wide receiver A.J.
