Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is not concerned about repeating as the NFL champion. Instead, the former Alabama standout is emphasizing resetting for the 2025 season to reach that pinnacle again.

“It’s a new journey, it’s a new season, and those things are far behind us,” Hurts said on Wednesday after the Eagles completed their first practice of training camp. “The past is behind us, and the future is too far away, so we have to stay present and worry about right now. And this is a new team, a new journey, but, ultimately, we’re here for the same collective. And so it’s about finding ways to win. And right now is the time to build a foundation to do so and continue to build that chemistry as a team.”

Philadelphia defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX on Feb. 9 to win the NFL crown for the 2024 season. Hurts received the most valuable player award for the game.

During the offseason, Hurts spent some time with Michael Jordan as a representative of the former basketball star’s shoe and apparel brand. Jordan played on two teams that won three consecutive NBA championships, and Hurts sought his input about staying on top.

“He used every word but repeat,” Hurts said, “and I can appreciate that.”

The Eagles have been to the playoffs annually and reached the Super Bowl twice during Hurts’ four seasons as their starting quarterback.

“I think it’s just purely about resetting,” Hurts said. “… Ultimately, it’s a new journey. It’s a blank canvas, and we are who we are. We have what we have. And regardless whether you win a championship or lose a championship, the next year, you have to be able to reset, have the right focus and pursue it with great intensity, great passion.

“And I think that’s where we are. You know, we have a new team, new individuals, and we have a tight-knit core that has been here throughout time. And so we just want to continue to build that chemistry that we have.”

Hurts is working with a new offensive coordinator – his sixth as he prepares for his sixth NFL season. Philadelphia moved Kevin Patullo from passing-game coordinator to offensive coordinator when Kellen Moore left after the Super Bowl to become the head coach of the New Orleans Saints.

“When you embark on a new season, you embark on something new,” Hurts said. “It’s a complete reset. And that’s something that coach Patullo has established, and that’s something that I’m very encouraged by, something I can really appreciate because every time we come in here, you got to be able to turn the page.

“And so we look back and it was a very, very good spring, very, very good spring. And that’s past us. And so now it’s purely focused on have a really good training camp, build a great foundation and continue to build on the chemistry with my teammates, with our team and with the coaches.”

As the previous season’s champion, the Eagles will play in the first game of the 2025 campaign. They will take on the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 4 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

Before that, the Eagles have three preseason games – against the Cincinnati Bengals on Aug. 7, Cleveland Browns on Aug. 16 and New York Jets on Aug. 22.
