From relatively humble beginnings, Jalen Hurts’s football career has played out like something from a Hollywood script. So it makes sense that, after Hurts signed a five-year, $255 million contract with the Eagles on Monday to make him the league’s highest-paid player, he’s now getting the Hollywood treatment.
Well, sort of.
There’s no known script in the works about Hurts’s rise to football stardom quite yet, but that’s not stopping former quarterback-turned-ESPN analyst Robert Griffin III from playing the role of casting director.

Ohio State offensive coordinator Brian Hartline was released from the hospital Monday afternoon following his UTV crash. Details have shed light on the crash that happened on Hartline’s property.
He was transported to Riverside Methodist Hospital after the wreck, which occurred around 1:20 a.m. Sunday morning. The extent of his injuries were not life-threatening.
According to the 911 call obtained by TMZ, Jamie Hartline, the sister of Brian, told the operator that the Ohio State OC had been drinking. The UTV he was driving flipped, injuring him and passenger Joshua Gaylor.
Urban Meyer coached Ohio State football for the majority of seven seasons. He never lost to Michigan.
The Buckeyes went a perfect 7-0 during Meyer’s tenure in Columbus. They won by a combined score of 275-189.

To say that Meyer was dominant against the Wolverines would be an understatement.
Memphis Grizzlies star Jaren Jackson Jr. was one of four players in NBA history to have averaged at least three blocks and one steal per game for a top-five defense during the DPOY era.
Jalen Hurts’ massive new deal with the Eagles could affect contract talks for fellow QBs Justin Herbert, Joe Burrow and, most notably, Lamar Jackson.
Very few ballparks in the United States carry the same home-field advantage as Yankee Stadium. The Bleacher Creatures are loud, proud and obnoxious in the best way.
Baseball is better when fans are rowdy, and there is no better example than right field in the Bronx.
A prominent aspect of the home-field advantage stems from the Bleacher Creatures, who are known for their chants and heckles. The most distinguished tradition is the “roll call.”
The concept is simple and it takes place in the first inning.
Perhaps no quarterback in the NFL generates more polarizing discussion than the Minnesota Vikings’ Kirk Cousins. Type his name into the Twitter search bar and you’ll see what I mean.
But ask his Vikings teammates and they usually have nothing but good things to say. No one more so than center Garrett Bradbury.
“He makes this whole thing go around,” Bradbury said, according to Vikings beat writer Alec Lewis.
The Dodgers re-signed former outfielder Andrew Toles in March even though the 30-year-old hasn’t played in MLB since 2018.
In fact, Los Angeles has signed Toles to a contract every year since the 2019 season to guarantee him access to health insurance. For the ’23 season, he won’t be paid by the team but will be considered a member of the organization. This is the fifth consecutive season the franchise has stepped up to provide assistance for Toles.
Toles did not report to spring training in 2019 while dealing with a “personal issue.
First of all, congratulations to Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts — a very rich man after receiving an insane five-year, $255 million contract from Philly.
Hurts — who’s played exceptionally the last two years and was elite in the Super Bowl — will make the most per year for an NFL player at $51 million. His deal beats out Aaron Rodgers, Kyler Murray, Deshaun Watson and Patrick Mahomes for the most money by a QB, per season.
Adding Hurts, four of the top-five highest-paid QBs in the NFL are black, which raises an interesting point.
Pittsburgh-based sportswriter Brandon Walker of Nittany Sports Now asked James Franklin a question for the first time Saturday. Before he did, though, the 51-year-old head football coach at Penn State had a question of his own, and it was highly-controversial.
In November, on the Tuesday before last Thanksgiving, Franklin asked every reporter in Beaver Stadium’s media room a food-based question. It led to a passionate debate amongst those in attendance at the news conference that lasted for quite some time.
Cranberry sauce may have been the most contentious topic.
