Jalen Hurts

The Philadelphia Eagles announced Monday afternoon that starting quarterback Jalen Hurts will be one of six captains for the 2021 NFL season.

Former Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith will serve as a honorary captain this Saturday as the Crimson Tide kickoff the 2021 season against the Miami Hurricanes.

With his first training camp as QB1 getting underway this past week, Hurts has impressed both his teammates and coaches.

DeVonta Smith was named the 2020 Amateur Athlete of the Year by the Alabama Sports Writers Association.

Jalen Hurts replaced Carson Wentz on a stagnant Eagles offense in the third quarter of their loss in Green Bay.

The Alabama Crimson Tide is just two days away from kicking off the 2020 season. It has been a long, strange offseason but finally, after a delayed start to the football season, the SEC is on the precipice of starting a unique season. With only two days left until the action begins, let's look back on some of the more memorable players to don the #2 jersey for the Crimson Tide.

Philadelphia activated Hurts as the backup QB, but he did more than hold a clipboard for four quarters.
