Pro Football Focus ranked Hurts as a No. 5 quarterback; however, he was placed in the high-end starters category. Above him, in the elite category, was Josh Allen (No. 4), Lamar Jackson (No. 3), Joe Burrow (No. 2), and Patrick Mahomes (No. 1).

Gripes that the Eagles' QB and Super Bowl MVP is constantly slighted grow louder with each national ranking, but Hurts is truly a difficult comparison.

Oklahoma was one of two schools (LSU) that had two of the top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL. If you include honorable mentions and players who also received votes, the Sooners are the only program to have three players appear in these rankings.
