On the eleventh episode of New Heights, we have our first-ever in-person sit-down interview with the #1 quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles, Jalen Hurts. Jalen is currently having an MVP-caliber season so it’s really exciting to be able to share this conversation with everyone.
In this episode, Jason and Travis get an answer to maybe the most important New Heights question, what’s Jalen calling on 4th & 1. (5:25) We also touch on Jalen's first impressions of being under center behind Jason (9:50), the backstory to the squat video everyone can’t stop talking about (12:20), why he hopes Jason keeps playing for at least a few more years (23:02), and his surprising reaction to hearing his name called by the Eagles on Draft Night (26:00).
The guys also chop it up about the philosophy of playing quarterback in the NFL (37:28), reveal Jalen’s QB Mt. Rushmore (43:47), dive into his special relationship with the Manning family (48:36), get his real thoughts on the MVP conversation (54:47), and debate the right way for NFL players to watch football games (56:34).
We also have some incredible stories of Jalen’s time at Alabama (01:01:17) and how that prepared him for playing in front of Philly fans (01:06:18), his plans to teach Jason the griddy (01:12:25), and our first-ever guest New Heights Stamp of the Week (01:15:06).
