Jalen Hurts - The Comeback Kid | 2022 Mini-Movie

strides he's made unbelievable he straight up sliced them just inside the 16. [Applause] four years of college how many times have you experienced losing four you know it's not going to be like that in the NFL we'll see [Music] here we go Kirk Jalen Hurts The Freshman from Channelview Texas Houston area what is his skill set Chris he's six two 210 pounds he was in for the spring his dad was a high school coach he's a gym rat he's constantly asking for the keys to get into the weight room uh but he is an athlete who can who can run around but you will be surprised if you think he's just an athletic guy he's got a big arm probably strongest arm to any of the quarterbacks 13 a taste of what this talented true freshman quarterback can do in the tie Take the Lead says Straight Ahead run and hers goes straight ahead for a touchdown his first rushing touchdown but they'll be promising looking career and don't think this guy is just a a change of pace not you know Wildcat type quarterback to watch him sling the ball around is impressive showing what he can do he's got it he's at the end zone touchdown Alabama well he's done a good job so far I think his production has improved in every game [Music] as efficiency has improved in every game he would be the first to tell you there's things that he can work on like every player on our team and we're certainly going to try to help him be even more efficient in what he does [Applause] so effortlessly gotten away from it now it takes up running [Music] the Alabama Crimson Tide driven to strengthen a decade-long dynasty take a look at the backfield wanted to throw down field hit and sacked from The Blind Side I could not believe how awful Alabama's offense looked in the first half I went from picking them to win the game to wondering whether or not they were going to score they just can't move the ball effectively we haven't been able to throw it effectively at all so you think six at halftime now that reaction from Nick Saban makes you wonder if you may see the true freshman backup quarterback behind Hurst and here it is so we're talking about Loa a true freshman from Hawaii against the second half start and then Nick Saban show why he's so great because he had the courage to make the call touchdown that he made to a backup that only saw garbage time during a few games during the regular season [Applause] [Applause] you just been shaking your head you've had that smile on your face your reaction when you found out until it was going to start the second half honestly he was going to step in and do his thing you know we have a lot of guys in the QB room that play really well as he stepped in and did his thing all right did the thing for the team what does it mean to you to be a national champion it's unbelievable I I dreamed about this congratulations Jalen thanks I certainly could say this about Jalen hurts he's an athlete an extraordinary athlete what George Hey listen he's better the downside to playing at Alabama as a five-star guy is if you don't compete every day at practice there's an NFL guy right behind you yeah I got nothing against Jalen hurts but it's like I don't know I kind of side with Alabama on this one I think certain people are built for certain situations thank God put me in a situation for a reason and I'm happy to be here regardless what people may say it's not something that I'm stuck in something that I'm going through what do you think Saban should do from here I think statement should bench him make him the second string quarterback and then Tua gets hurt when Alabama's down and it's Georgia again born to try to pull that down and two us down again well how ironic would this be if Jalen hurts us to come in to play quarterback yes well he's expecting to Georgia brings you Extra Man hurts trying to run away from the heat lost one on the sideline yes I I don't know if I've ever seen anything like this before the guy who was vanquished to the bench a year ago playing behind the Heisman candidate comes off the bench to give him a chance [Applause] again just inside the 16 quarterback draw Jalen hurts are you kidding me [Applause] what did that moment feel like for you when you went back under Center um I honestly didn't know what to think you know all year I kind of been waiting on my opportunity um regardless of how I went and the opportunity came today and work hard really with this week with my teammates and we found a way to get it done today former Alabama quarterback Jalen hurts is now Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurst hurts rights I've decided to take my talents to the University of Oklahoma where I will continue my development as a quarterback and as a student I'm very fortunate to have this opportunity and I'm excited for the journey ahead then we'll put like an animal in the cage tiger lion or a gorilla even any type of beast but Roshes something that's Fierce that you really don't want to deal with in the cage but when you don't let it eat foreign everything I got I just went in there and worked and going to that University playing that position you know you got all these external he's not gonna do anything he he won't compare to the previous quarterbacks he's a one-man show touchdown Jalen hurts but I'ma repeat myself I got serious questions about whether you can throw the football Lions don't discern themselves with opinions from sheep what a play by Jalen hurts I went there to win the national championship I wanted to do that for the University Jayla hurts will finish his career 38-4 we came up short 26-2 we got Alabama why should someone draft you for my dog I'm a Relentless competitor I'm a leader holding myself accountable to do my job for the sake of the guys and the team no other guy in this class has the ability that I have in terms of getting freaky or making all the throws we're the 53rd pick in the 2020 NFL draft the Philadelphia quarterback Oklahoma but more than anything else this is Insurance the Eagles have always invested heavily in the backup quarterback position this time Lewis they do it with draft Capital just an interesting situation to draft a quarterback who at best I think is a developmental project putting behind Carson Wentz interesting pick here for the Philadelphia Eagles [Music] and Jalen hurts leads the offense onto the field I'm just trying to stay diligent with everything stay diligent be consistent with my preparation studying doing what I have to do to be prepared to play it's rolling he's lucky to the end zone touchdown what a throw and what a case carrying on that same mentality that I've always had this year uh always been able or being ready to answer the phone when it rings a dream so ready to answer Blitz is coming hurt season gets rid of it it's gone for the touchdown Al Shaw Jeffrey the spotlight shines most intensely today on a 22 year old rookie quarterback and that guy Jalen hurts still looking he is firing and he complaints at the great Wars at the 30 of the Eagles and hurts um as a kid you grow up in you know you dream of opportunities like this so reaching out outside Jeff Rainey hauls it in I'm just like always like always have my head down and I'm working on it second career start going for the End Zone yes touchdown do you think Hertz has officially taken Carson's job yes stretching out first touchdown guys the Eagles have been a different football team over the last almost six quarters a different football team I want to credit Jalen hurts and he runs in for the touchdown and the Eagles take their first lead of the game he was uh decisive with the football it helped their football team he didn't hurt their football team with his use of legs his legs and getting outside of the pocket that was outstanding he is going deep and it is caught and it is a touchdowns Devonte Smith they asked him to be a spark he was a consistent flame but I think Philly's uh issue in the playoffs if they get in [Applause] hearts just put it away for the Eagles touchdown his fourth of the day the Titans are trading wide receiver AJ what to the Eagles what her Adam schefter You're Gonna Know on jail here right yeah they're they're giving him no no there's nowhere nobody to blame nope at this point is can he be a really good quarterback with all of the weapons around him four years of college how many times have you experience losing or board games you know it's not gonna be like that in the NFL let me see [Applause] strides he's made unbelievable when you're talking about uh the Eagles and how committed they were to Jalen hurts so true hurts pops up throws pass caught touchdown they did put the pieces around them they wanted to find out is is he really the guy well guess what he he answered that one yes he is should Hertz be the MVP front-runner I believe that he should and put up 40 on Green Bay eviscerated in Tennessee and Then followed It Up by telling the New York Giants it ain't happening [Applause] this is the team that no one expected to lead the NFC east and if they did they didn't think that it would come from Jalen hurts his success I carry my scars on me everywhere I go I don't forget I truly invest my focus in me getting better as a quarterback he's straight up sliced them I'm doing the things I need to do for my team so
