Jalen Hurts, Eagles quarterback, channels past failures and competitive spirit into motivation for the Super Bowl. This article explores Hurts' journey, highlighting his unyielding determination and the influence of his father, Averion Hurts Sr., who has witnessed his son's growth from high school to the NFL.
A competitor above all else, the quarterback has used past failures as motivation. “You either win or you learn,” he says.
“ told him there wasn’t no b— in his blood. I was like, ‘Oh!’ As a dad, all you can really say is, ‘Hmm.’ You want to say, ‘That’s my boy,’ but I wasn’t expecting that. But it gave me an insight into more of his mindset. He’s built for this journey.” Before he could find the line, as his son prepared for his freshman season at Alabama in 2016, Jalen asked him to stop trying to separate Dad from Coach anyway.
Averion Jr. added of his brother: “He said they would be back. He said all these things, so to see them come to fruition, it’s really not a surprise. These are things that he’s articulated.”Amid the frenzy of Super Bowl media night, Eagles quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier’s raspy voice rose above the low drone of a dozen nearby conversations with a simple answer to a complicated question.
“I think it was just them being able to communicate on a different level. They know each other so well, and they can talk to each other differently, which is great. They have a willingness and ability to just talk. It’s just different. When you know somebody and you know you’re both invested in that, you can say things. I think that’s really what it came down to. We can say what we need to, feel good about it, and know we’re both working toward this.
Perhaps Sunday might require Hurts to author a performance akin to the one two years before, but Patullo said the bye-week conversations led to the staff, along with Hurts, feeling more comfortable with the offense taking on whatever complexion was necessary each week.
