Jalen Hurts' road to superstardom in the NFL hasn't been a typical one, having been passed over at numerous points of his career and benched in embarrassing circumstances.
But the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback has proved his worth and cemented his status as one of the best in the game, no wonder there's speculation he could become the highest earner in NFL history.
Hurts was a second-round selection in the 2020 draft, and few believed he'd ever reach the heights he has now. The quarterback is entering into a contract year after the Super Bowl, and will earn just $4million - 10% of what Mahomes will make in the same year. However, Spotrac has his market value at $44.2m per season, meaning he could realistically ask for a huge new deal this summer or wait and hit free agency next year.
