Jalen Hurts
From the Set Modern Legends of the Turf
By the time he turned 25-years-old, Jalen Hurts had already been a starter in the NFL for four seasons. Since the Philadelphia Eagles gave him the job after drafting him in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft, Hurts has been named to two Pro Bowls, in 2022 and 2023. His dual-threat ability to beat teams by either slinging the ball from the pocket or running with it for huge chunks of yardage makes him one of the most dynamic players in the league. In 2022, Hurts was named a second-team NFL All-Pro and led his team to a Super Bowl appearance, something Eagles fans hope to see more of in the years to come. Each title in the Modern Legends of the Turf series engages young readers with fun and interesting special elements and bold, easy-to-understand graphics. Players' careers are detailed from beginning to end in an informative and entertaining narrative that readers will enjoy.
