After scoring the first touchdown by an Alabama alumnus in the first quarter, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts scored another in the second quarter of Super Bowl LVII on Sunday.

Hurts’ 4-yard touchdown run with 2:20 left in the second quarter came after the Eagles QB had lost a fumble that Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton returned 36 yards for a touchdown to tie the NFL championship game at 14-14 with 9:39 left in the first half.

The Eagles also got a 35-yard field goal from Jake Elliott on the final snap of the first half to take a 24-14 lead into the locker room at halftime.

Philadelphia responded with a 12-play, 75-yard touchdown drive that included a 28-yard run by Hurts on a fourth-and-5 snap at the Kansas City 44-yard line.

The run was the second-longest in the Super Bowl by an Alabama alumnus behind a 34-yard run by Denver running back Bobby Humphrey in the Broncos’ 55-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XXIV on Jan. 28, 1990.

Hurts had scored on a 1-yard quarterback sneak to cap Philadelphia’s first possession with 10:09 left in the first quarter. That had made Hurts the first NFL quarterback to run for a touchdown in at least three games in a single postseason.

Between his two runs, Hurts had a 45-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver A.J. Brown on the first snap of the second quarter.

Hurts became the third former Alabama quarterback with a Super Bowl touchdown pass, joining Bart Starr, who had two in Super Bowl I and one in Super Bowl II, and Ken Stabler, who had one in Super Bowl XI.

Hurts’ throw was the second-longest in that group. Starr had a 62-yard touchdown pass to Boyd Dowler in the Green Bay Packers’ 33-14 victory over the Oakland Raiders in Super Bowl II on Jan. 14, 1968.
