After all the interviews wind down, the Super Bowl parade is officially set for this Friday. But while Eagles fans gear up for the celebration, a different conversation is brewing about quarterback Jalen Hurts. In his second Super Bowl appearance, Hurts delivered a statement win, leading the Philadelphia Eagles to victory over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
Hurts was spectacular, completing 17 of 22 passes and rushing for 72 yards. He accounted for three total touchdowns while maintaining his signature calm and composed demeanor. Despite his success, Hurts’ legitimacy as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL has often been debated. However, after Sunday’s performance, many analysts believe this game cemented his legacy.
“Jalen Hurts is off to the start of a future Hall of Fame career,” ESPN’s Ryan Clark said on First Take this week. “I’ll say it, y’all ain’t gotta say it, but I will… Let me tell you something—Jalen Hurts is 46-20 in the regular season. He’s 37-10 since 2022, he’s 6-3 in the playoffs. He has two Pro Bowls, a second-team All-Pro, he was second in MVP voting, and now he’s a Super Bowl MVP.”

Jordan Brand released a powerful commercial commemorating Hurts’ journey and silencing doubters. The ad serves as a reminder of how far he’s come, from being benched in the National Championship to transferring to Oklahoma, to being drafted after Joe Burrow, Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert, and Jordan Love. Now, he stands as the first Super Bowl MVP out of that group.
The cream always rises to the top, and Hurts has officially created a legacy that demands respect.
