Similar to his time at Alabama, Jalen Hurts has quickly become a fan favorite amongst the Philadelphia Eagles fanbase largely due to the fact that he has the Eagles in play for one of the final wildcard spots going into Week 18.
The Eagles defeated the Washington Football Team on Sunday by a score of 20-16, improving its record to 9-7.
Eagles fans were expectedly enthused by the team’s performance and Hurts’ play, so much so that a few fans broke through a railing onto the field while showing their support to the quarterback.
Luckily no one appeared to be injured and Hurts stuck around for a few photos with the fallen fans.

The Eagles will now look forward to a Week 18 matchup at home against the Dallas Cowboys as it looks to secure its first playoff birth since 2019.
