Jalen Hurts

Jalen Hurts is an NFL quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles. During his high school football career in Houston, Hurts was coached by his father and quickly established himself as a top recruit nationally. He went on to commit to the University of Alabama and transferred to the University of Oklahoma his senior year. He graduated with a masters degree in human relations in 2023.

Hurts was drafted as the 53rd overall pick to the Philadelphia Eagles for the 2020 season. He started out as a third string quarterback for the Eagles, but after an impressive performance filling in for Carson Wentz during a 2020 game against the Green Bay Packers, he got the opportunity to start as quarterback the following game. Hurts had one of the best starting debuts in NFL history and to date is one of the highest-paid NFL players in history after signing a five-year, $255 million contract extension in April 2023. He led the Eagles to the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs in both 2023 and 2025.

Hurts met Bry Burrows at the University of Alabama, and the two went public with their relationship in 2023. They got engaged in September 2024.
