Former Alabama and Oklahoma quarterback Jalen Hurts showed off another one of his many talents at the Eagles’ rookie talent show: singing.
Hurts sang Al Green’s “Love and Happiness” during the Philadelphia Eagles’ talent show, and let’s just say… some might say that Hurts needs to stick to football.
Even his teammates can be heard laughing and cheering him on in the video, which made it even more funny. They loved it, and so did Jalen. Hurts also made sure to represent his new town by wearing a Phillies jacket.
When Hurts was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles as the 53rd overall pick, many wondered if Hurts would see any action on the field. Some even questioned during the NFL combine is he would even be an NFL quarterback. Hurts is on a mission to prove he’s not only worthy of being an NFL quarterback, but he’s an incredible one.
