It turns out the franchise quarterback didn’t always know football was in his future.
PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — The Philadelphia Eagles have a day off before returning for another round of organized team activities (OTA) Thursday.
The break gave Jalen Hurts some time for a fan Q&A and the Birds posted some of the answers to their website.
It turns out the franchise quarterback didn’t always know football was in his future.
Question: If you were to play another professional sport, what would it be?
Hurts: “I’d probably play baseball. I feel like I would have been real special at it if I had continued to play but I just let it go.”
He said he played baseball and basketball in high school.
“I loved baseball. It was my first love,” the Eagles QB1 said. “But I think I made the right decision.”
Hurts isn’t the only all-around athlete on the team. The Padres drafted wide receiver AJ Brown in 2016.
