Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is married! “You can call her my wife,” the Super Bowl champion shared in a recent interview with Men’s Health, in reference to his longtime partner Bryonna “Bry” Burrows. To celebrate this joyous news, we decided to look back at their relationship, including details on how they met and when they first got engaged. Read on for more. 

Who is Jalen Hurts? 

Hurts is the Philadelphia Eagles’ starting quarterback. He’s 26 years old and is one of the NFL’s youngest starting players. He is also the only player in NFL history to have an all-female management team. 

“It takes everyone being all in, in all aspects. And it starts with me,” Hurts said in 2023. “We’ve lost games because I can be better. That will change everything, and I accept that.”

“It’s a challenge I’m embracing. As challenging as these times are, I still see light at the end of the tunnel. Just a matter of believing.”

Before joining the Eagles in 2020, Hurts played football at the University of Alabama. While there, he studied public relations and information science and led his team to two consecutive College Football Playoff National Championship games in 2016 and 2017, capturing the attention of NFL teams everywhere.

“It was a goal that I set for myself, and I think more importantly, it’s something that I started, and it’s something I had to finish,” he said at the time. “It’s important to me, and it’s something that made my parents proud. I know my mom has her master’s already; my girl has her master’s. So, I’m chasing them (smiling). My best friend has his master’s. So, just chasing them.”

“I’m glad I got it out of the way. It’s something off the checklist, and I was able to knock out the classes online after everything settled from the season.” 

Hurts just won his first-ever Super Bowl in 2025, after defeating Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs. He is expected to return to the Eagles for the 2025-2026 season.

Bryonna “Bry” Burrows is a technology industry employee who also studied at the University of Alabama. While there, she joined the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Spanish and political science and got her MBA immediately after that. 

Aside from tech, she is also very passionate about women in business and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts. 

“I’m fortunate my company allows us the space to converse, listen and learn from one another,” Burrows said in 2021. “[DEI] is deeper than gender, skin color or nationality. It’s about lived experiences that define who we are and better our community and workplace.”

Currently, Burrows is believed to be still working in the tech industry and can often be found on the sidelines, cheering on her husband.

“I mean, to this point in my life, that’s an irreplaceable feeling. I think that’s what allowed us to get to where we are now,” Hurts said in 2023. “She’s the staple in my spirituality. She’s always the one who’s, like, ‘Ask God for what you want. Ask God for what you need. He knows, but it’s okay to say it in prayer.’ ” 

Burrows attended the Super Bowl, and following her husband’s win, she rushed onto the field to celebrate with him.
