Jalen Hurts is often time criticized for his lack of head-turning stats and plays while throwing the football.
While he may not have the passing stats of a Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson, Hurts has proven he is a winner at every stage of football from Channelview High School to Alabama to Oklahoma and now in the NFL with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Winning continues to be the most important stat to Hurts.
“I think we need to change our approach to all of this,” Hurts said. “I don’t play the game for stats. I don’t play the game for numbers or any statistical approval from anyone else. I understand everyone has a preconceived notion of how they want it to look or how they expect it to look. Winning and success is defined about that particular individual and how it’s all relative to the person. What I define it as is winning. The number one goal is always to come out here and win.”
Hurts will look to pick up the most important win of his life on the field when the Eagles take on the Chiefs in the Super Bowl.
