Jurgens’ journey to the center position has been a gradual one, starting as a right guard before transitioning to center this season. Despite limited experience at center in the NFL, Jurgens has shown promise and potential, impressing with his performance on the field.
Dickerson praises Jurgens’ intelligence, physicality, and communication skills, highlighting his ability to lead the offensive line and ensure smooth coordination during games. With Dickerson’s support and guidance, Jurgens is poised to succeed in his new role and make a name for himself in the league.
As the Eagles prepare for the upcoming season, all eyes will be on Jurgens as he steps into the spotlight as the team’s starting center. With the backing of his teammates and coaches, Jurgens is ready to embrace the challenge and prove himself as a worthy successor to a franchise great like Jason Kelce.
