Fly, Jalen Hurts’ jerseys, fly.

Philadelphia Eagles‘ fans have plenty to be happy about after quarterback Jalen Hurts led the team to a 32-6 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday in his fifth career start. Philadelphia fans are a tough crowd to please, but Hurts did just that in Week 1 and his recent jersey surge proves that.

Philadelphia Eagles fans can’t get their hands on a Jalen Hurts jersey fast enough

Hurts completed 27-of-35 pass attempts and threw for 265 yards with three touchdowns and earned a 126.4 passer rating at Mercedes Benz Stadium. Hurts’ tied his NFL career-high with three touchdown passes and Eagles fans are praising him for it.

Hurts’ No. 1 jersey enjoyed the largest one-day spike of any other NFL player on Sunday after a whopping 500% increase in sales. Hurts’ jersey currently sits at No. 2 behind New England Patriots’ quarterback Mac Jones jersey for the league’s best-selling product.

If there were any hesitations surrounding Philadelphia’s QB1 heading into the first week of the regular season, they’ve been momentarily subsided. Fans were quick to dig into their wallets to cash-in on one of the NFL’s most exciting quarterbacks in Week 1.

It’s still too early to tell if Hurts is the answer that the Eagles have been searching for after saying their goodbyes to Carson Wentz and Nick Foles, but his performance entering his second year in the league was promising.

Philadelphia will face off against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday for its home opener at Lincoln Financial Field. After beating the Detriot Lions on Sunday, the 49ers remain one of the NFL’s top-10 teams.

Regardless of how Hurts performs in Week 2, at least he’ll have the support of looking up into the stands and seeing his name on the backs of thousands of fans.
