Jalen Hurts announced as finalist for the 2022 NFL MVP award

Jalen Hurts is one of five finalists for the NFL MVP award

After an outstanding season, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, Jalen Hurts, has been announced as a finalist for the NFL MVP award. The Eagles will be hosting the San Fransisco 49ers on Sunday for a trip to the Super Bowl.

The former Crimson Tide quarterback was a second-team All-Pro in 2022 and accumulated a 66.5 completion percent, 3,701 yards, 22 touchdowns and only six interceptions. Hurts also carried the ball 165 times for 760 yards and 13 scores.

From losing the starting quarterback job in a national championship game to being listed alongside Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen for an NFL MVP is one of the greatest redemption stories of all time.

The winner will not be announced until Thursday, Feb. 9, before the Super Bowl.
