Jalen Hurts signs with Jordan Brand, new commercial is fire: âIâm excited and thankfulâ
Jalen Hurts is the newest representative of the Jordan Brand.
The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback wore Jordan Brand’s Jumpman logo on his cleats last season, including during Super Bowl XLIII. The deal was negotiated by Joe D’Amelio, VP of Football Marketing at Klutch Sports Group.
“I’m excited and thankful to join the Jordan Brand,” Hurts said in an exclusive statement to Andscape. “I share a lot of important qualities with the Jumpman: dedication to goals, commitment to excellence and values, and an unwavering sense of self-belief that not only drives me but inspires me to make an impact for the next generation.”

Andscape confirmed that Hurts is one of three quarterbacks signed this season, along with Dallas’ Dak Prescott and rookie Bryce Young, who signed with Jordan before the Carolina Panthers selected him with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft held in April.
“I’m proud to be counted among the athletes who have represented Team Jordan,” Hurts continued in the statement.
