Jalen Hurts shouted out the Cardinals’ defense in a classy moment the media didn’t ask about them during his press conference

What an incredibly classy moment from Jalen Hurts

The Philadelphia Eagles are the best team in the NFL right now and it’s partly because Jalen Hurts has been so spectacular.

It’s not just on the field, though — he’s been dazzling off of it too. He’s said and done all the right things off of the field so far. He had another one of those moments on Thursday in a press conference ahead of the Eagles’ upcoming game against the Cardinals.

He sat and answered questions from the media for 9 minutes, according to 12 Sports Arizona anchor Cameron Cox. He didn’t get a single question about the Cardinals defense and their upcoming matchup.

But he didn’t let that slide. Before leaving the podium he made sure to point out how good they were.

“I will say this, too. I didn’t get any questions about the Cardinals…This is a really good team we’re about to play. They have a really good defense — disruptive up front. They have speed on the backend. So, let’s not set the precedent for that. This is a good football team.” 

That’s just an incredibly respectful gesture in a moment where Hurts wasn’t even asked for one. Shoutout to Hurts for this — certainly, Cardinals fans will appreciate it.
