“Excited to work with him”: Jalen Hurts eager to collaborate with new OC amid Eagles QB’s generous act

The Philadelphia Eagles made key moves this offseason to strengthen both their defense and offense. With the addition of defensive coordinator Clint Hurtt, they’ve also bolstered their offensive capabilities by bringing in Kellen Moore as their new offensive coordinator, addressing speculations about their offensive strategy.

Meanwhile, amid attention for his philanthropic efforts benefiting Philadelphia schools, quarterback Jalen Hurts is also in the spotlight for his eagerness to establish a rapport with Moore. Hurts expressed his excitement to collaborate with Moore, emphasizing his readiness to learn and grow.

“I’m excited to work with him. I know they (Moore and the staff) have a history of doing really good things. I’m just all ears. I’m a sponge. I think there’s some beauty in that. I’ve always had a desire for growth and development,” Hurts said, per Philadelphia Eagles.

Moore steps into the role previously held by Brian Johnson, who was relieved of his duties after the Eagles’ disappointing finish in the NFC wild-card playoffs. With Moore at the helm, the Eagles hope to inject new energy into their offense, which at times felt stagnant and uncoordinated during the 2023 season. 

If Moore and Hurts can synchronize their efforts, there’s optimism for a resurgence in the team’s offensive performance next season.

The donation will go towards installing new air conditioning systems in 10 schools, providing much-needed relief during hot days.

The star quarterback shared his motivation behind the donation during an assembly at Edward Gideon Elementary School, stating the importance of providing students with the resources they need to succeed. 

“I see so much potential, so much opportunity, I see so many beautiful spirits in these young kids. Everybody has a dream and they deserve to reach those dreams with the proper resources.”

The School District of Philadelphia expressed gratitude for his contribution, revealing that the air conditioners will be installed in schools that have previously experienced early dismissals due to high temperatures.
