Jalen Hurts is the talk of the sports world on Monday following his first NFL championship. The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback led his team to a 40-22 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, avenging his loss to Patrick Mahomes' Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII two seasons ago.

On Sunday night, Jalen Hurts carried the weight of the world. He held it in his right hand as he walked to a spot in the locker room where he could lean against the wall, slide to the floor, stretch out his legs and place the Lombardi Trophy between them.

Jalen Hurts has been fighting to get here for close to 10 years: on the midfield stage of a championship game, holding a trophy while confetti falls around him with the cheers of adoring fans ringing out around a massive stadium.
