To look at him, youd never know what Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts has gone through.Hurts was the starting quarterback for the University of Alabama, but lost his job to Tua Tagovailoa, who went on to lead the Crimson Tide to the national championship in 2017.The following year, in the SEC Championship game against the Georgia Bulldogs, Hurts made a comeback when Tagovailoa got hurt; he came off the bench to lead his team to the SEC Championship.As great as that moment was for Hurts, he recently admitted he almost quit football after being benched.A time where I wanted to quit. There was a time I was actually just reflecting on this, there was a time in college where I really questioned, Whats going on? Where do I go from here? I had a lot of adversity in front of me. I was counted out. I was doubted. Broken down and dissected and all these different ways. I just persevered, he said.He would eventually transfer to Oklahoma, where he would be a runner-up for the Heisman Trophy his senior season and would eventually be drafted by the Eagles.Hurts is currently promoting his first childrens book, Better Than a Touchdown, on various media platforms this week.This article originally appeared on Touchdown Wire: Jalen Hurts admits he almost quit after demotion at Bama
