Who Is James Hurst?

Posted Sep 27, 2014
When the Ravens take on the Carolina Panthers Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium, undrafted rookie James Hurst is expected to get the start at left tackle in place of the injured Eugene Monroe. The fact that Hurst is slated to make his first NFL start is surprising to many considering he went undrafted five months ago and was one of the most unexpected players to end up on the 53-man roster.
