Scoreboard roundup — 5/5/25

(PHILADELPHIA) — Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is a Super Bowl champion — and now a husband too.

Hurts married his longtime girlfriend Bryonna “Bry” Burrows this spring, not long after he led the Eagles to a Super Bowl victory on Feb. 9, 2025.

The Eagles star confirmed his marriage to Burrows in an interview with Men’s Health published Monday.

Hurts did not share any further details of his wedding to Burrows, to whom he got engaged last September. ABC News has also reached out to a representative for Hurts for additional comment.

Burrows, who met Hurts as a student at the University of Alabama, was among the family members who celebrated with Hurts on the field of the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans in February after he led the Eagles to a 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX.

Hurts has played for the Eagles since 2020, when the team selected him in the second round of the NFL draft.

Since making his home in Philadelphia, Hurts has given back to the community through his Jalen Hurts Foundation.

In 2024, the quarterback donated $200,000 for air conditioners in Philadelphia-area schools to ensure students can stay comfortable during warmer months. On Feb. 5, just days before the 2025 Super Bowl, Hurts unveiled his new charity initiative, 1 Mission, to provide school supplies and support teachers and students in Philadelphia-area schools.

“We’re on a mission and it’s not just to bring [a Super Bowl win] home to Philly,” Hurts said in a message to a group of Philadelphia elementary school students shared on “Good Morning America.” “It’s to always give you guys the resources you need, everything you need to be great and be successful.”

Hurts, 26, previously announced his engagement to longtime girlfriend Burrows in September 2024.

The couple shared engagement photos with Essence and Hurts previously told the magazine he knew Burrows, whom he met while he was a student at the University of Alabama, was “the one” for him.

“I knew a long time ago,” he said in a 2023 interview. “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 gives a lot of credit for his success over the years to his parents, Averion Hurts, Sr. and Pamela Hurts.

“I have a foundation kind of set for myself, but my parents did that for me,” he said in 2023, in a press conference ahead of Super Bowl LVII. “I think being a coach’s kid, they created habits for me to see things a certain way, have the wisdom that I have, and I give all the credit to them.”

Hurts got his start in football in part through his dad Averion Hurts, Sr., who coached him while he was a student at Channelview High School in Channelview, Texas.

In an interview with “Good Morning Football,” the elder Hurts said it has been a “blessing” to watch his son develop a passion for football.

“It’s humbling as a parent, as a coach, but it’s a great opportunity for him and his teammates,” he said.

Hurts’ older brother, Averion Hurts, Jr. also played football and was a quarterback for Texas Southern University’s Tigers in Houston, Texas. He is now a coach at Baytown High School in Texas.

Hurts also has a younger sibling, his sister Kynnedy. Like her brothers, Kynnedy Hurts is an athlete and played volleyball for Channelview High School.

(NEW YORK) — University of Miami quarterback Cam Ward is opening up after being selected as the first pick in the 2025 NFL draft.

“I’m feeling great. Finally, you know, got to live out my dream for a night,” Ward told “Good Morning America” from Green Bay, Wisconsin, where the draft was held at Lambeau Field. “Excited to do with a good organization like Tennessee and I’m just ready to get to Nashville, get to know my teammates.”

Ward has come a long way from getting just one scholarship offer in high school to becoming the ACC player of the year and then the draft’s first overall pick.

“I just think it’s inspirational. It’s a long journey, you know, not only for myself, but a lot of people in this world who have to come up like I did. And, I mean, I’ve been blessed,” the 22-year-old said. “I work hard now. I got faith in God and, you know, it’s just been an awesome journey for myself and my family. And, you know, the road’s just getting started.”

Alongside Ward at the draft were his parents — mom Patrice Ward and dad Calvin Ward — two of his biggest and key supporters.

“They’ve been there since day one, since Little League, all the way to this point,” Cam Ward said. “And you know, for them to be by my side on one of the biggest days of my football career is a blessing. That’s something that not a lot of kids get. I’m honored to have them by my side every day.”

But even though he has been living at home with his parents ahead of the draft, Ward said he’s looking forward to moving into a new home in Nashville.

“I’m ready. The best thing about getting drafted — I finally get me somewhere to live now,” he said, adding, “I know a little bit about Nashville. Not too much, but, you know, that’s why I got a lot of time to learn, learn more about it. But I’m excited.”

Ward’s dog Uno will also make the big move with him to the Tennessee capital.

“I got a 130-pound rottweiler. That boy, he’s something different. I got him when I was in Washington State,” said Ward, who played for the Cougars before transferring to Miami for his final season.

Ward said he’s already looking ahead to his career with the Titans and hopes to make a lasting first impression.

“I do expect to be a starting quarterback. Which quarterback doesn’t have that confidence in themselves? So, you know, want to go out there and make plays, but at the end of the day, it’s not my decision. It’s the GM and the head coach,” he said. “I know they’re going to put myself in the best situation in the franchise. So I’m excited, you know, just learn the playbook some more and be with my teammates.”
