Jalen
Hurts

Hurts captured his first championship ring after pushing Philadelphia to a 40-22 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. Don't expect to see him sporting the jewelry anytime soon. "I've moved on to the next year," he said. That's the type of focus the Eagles need to make a back to back run to the big game.

Jalen is strength, discipline and leadership rolled into one. He's built like a power back, throws with calm authority and punishes defenses with designed runs. Hurts commands the huddle and thrives in high-leverage moments. He became the first quarterback in NFL history to register at least a 100 passer rating and 5 50 rushing yards in two Super Bowls.

Hurts dealt with the pressure that comes from being in the NFL's first game on Brazilian soil well, topping 300 total yards and tossing two TDs vs. Green Bay in the 2024 opener. The scores came on connections with Saquon Barkley and A.J. Brown, chemistry builders for a Super Bowl-winning campaign.

One of the most versatile passers in the league, Hurts can beat the defense with his arm and his legs. The dual-threat playmaker calmly navigates the pocket and slings tight spirals through coverage. If the play breaks down, he can quickly find a lane and scamper down the sideline to move the chains.

Hurts delivered an exceptional performance, completing 77.3 percent of his passes and rushing for 72 yards, setting a new Super Bowl record for quarterback rushing yards. Not bad for the 53rd overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Jalen finally reached the mountaintop when he guided the Eagles to a long-awaited 40-22 Super Bowl LIX victory against the Chiefs in 2025, earning MVP honors with a nearly flawless performance in the rout. Hurts accounted for three touchdowns, throwing for 221 yards and running for another 72 to set a quarterback rushing record in the Big Game.

Hurts was only in his sixth NFL season in 2025 — yet he's already competing with himself in the record books. The Super Bowl-winning Eagles star looked to add to his record four seasons with 10 or more rushing TDs by a QB. His 14 scores in 2024 broke a tie with Cam Newton, who had three such campaigns.

Hurts did not wear his Super Bowl ring to Eagles training camp in 2025, and he didn't mind sharing why: He was already focused on working toward the next one. "The past is behind us, and the future's too far away, so we have to stay present and worry about right now," the Super Bowl LIX MVP said.

Hurts earned team captain honors in each of his first three seasons as the Eagles' starting quarterback. That trend continued in 2024, when he earned the distinction for the fourth straight campaign. In response, the star playmaker led Philadelphia to an NFC East crown and helped host the Lombardi Trophy.

Jalen is a powerhouse commander—calm, composed and built for the biggest moments. He blends determined goal-line strength with smooth, efficient passing, thriving in tight windows and on late-game drives. A leader through and through, he turns toughness, poise and versatility into winning football.

Hurts was new and improved in multiple areas heading into the 2024 season, most notably his leadership. The fifth-year quarterback made an effort to get to know his Eagles teammates better off the gridiron, looking to increase the positive vibes and good energy throughout the team on a daily basis.

Hurts is to Philly now what Cunningham was from 1985-95, and he's making everyone in the city proud — especially the former QB. "The character of this young man is excellent," Cunningham said.

Philadelphia loves gritty, blue-collared efforts, and Hurts gave it to them as he gutted out a win with an ailing knee against rival Dallas in Week 9 of 2023. "I'll do anything for this city and for my teammates," the signal-caller said. "It takes what it takes and that's, simply put, whatever it takes."
