Jalen Hurts may have came out on the losing end of Super Bowl LVII but he’s a classy competitor that has a lot of respect for Mahomes and Kansas City. Hurts was in town for the annual 101 Awards. This nationally-renowned event was initiated in 1969 by a group headed by Kansas City businessman Jack O. Wheeler to honor outstanding achievements in professional football. Hurts was asked by Fox 4 reporter Harold Kuntz about fellow Texas native Patrick Mahomes and Hurts spoke very highly of the Super Bowl MVP. “He’s always been a good player, always had a lot of respect for him.” Hurts said. “I always support any Texas kid, it’s a special bond.” Eagles QB Jalen Hurts said he always supports players from the state of Texas, especially Patrick Mahomes.He also said he's enjoyed KC and he enjoyed 'Steve Jacks Barbecue' to which @HaroldRKuntz3 told him is called Jack Stack Barbecue. pic.twitter.com/Vm2iA9f9u9— PJ Green (@PJGreenTV) February 26, 2023 Facebook Twitter/X Email Post navigation WATCH: Mahomes and Kelce party with the Chainsmokers in Vegas WATCH: Patrick & Brittany at the Dallas Mavericks game
