Hurts: Concussion didn't bother me
Jalen Hurts has revealed how he came back from a serious concussion scare, that could have dealt a terminal blow to the Eagles' Super Bowl hopes.

Hurts seemed in awe of his achievement as he stared at the Vince Lombardi trophy in disbelief following his team's dominant 40-22 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
He said: "It has been a long year of competition and we change things, but we get our reps in -- we work.
"When I came back from the concussion, the number one thing I said going into the post-season was let's look back at this and say it was all worth it.
"It's worth it. Everything was worth it."

Softly spoken Hurts is MVP
If there is one thing for sure, it is that Jalen Hurts will NOT be getting carried away with the Eagles' win.
Asked about the criticism, he said: "I never said it bothered me. I accepted it for what it was. I found a thrill in it.
"I can't control what these people think.”
Hurts kept the image of him walking off the field after Super Bowl 57 with Chiefs-colored confetti falling down around him as his screen saver image on his cell phone.
He added: "That's something nobody is supposed to know about.
Asked if he would it is better to have a victorious screensaver, he replied: “Darn right it is.”
Siri-ously don’t care
Nick Sirianni does things his way - and wins.
We didn't really ever care what anyone thought about how we won... all we wanted to do was win.
These guys did not want to let each other down.
That's a great football team (the Chiefs).
We had to come out and play our best. What a lesson to the whole world about teamwork.
This is the ultimate team game. You can't be great without the greatness of others and this was a great performance by everybody. It took everybody.
I'll be shedding a couple of happy tears tonight. A lot of work went into this.

What's next for Kelce?
Travis Kelce has brushed aside rumours of retirement in the lead up to the Super Bowl, but with a historic three-peat of the table, dose the topic creep back into off-season conversations.
“I still love what I do. I love coming into work every day," he said in the week's build-up.
"It's moments like these that make me feel like I could play this game forever.
"I feel like I still have a lot of good football left in me so we'll see what happens.
Hurts named Super Bowl MVP
It could've went to a host of guys, particularly those in the defence when a historic shut-out was on the cards after two quarters and a bit.
Jalen Hurts takes it, as the quarterback usually dose, and deservedly so. Though an award for the match, it feels one that justifies his contribution as a player and leader to the Eagles organisation as a whole.

Trophy coronation
The confetti is out and the Eagles have their hands on the Super Bowl.
Owner Jeffrey Lurie, Nick Sirianni and Hurts have steped up to the stage in varying emotions - some more measured than others.
The unspoken man
With all the glamour on dimply in this Eagles team, in the players and the staff, its the Executive vice president who has masterminded this championship.
Howie Roseman backed Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni when others didn't, especially in that Week 5 bye week.
Offensive and defensive coaches have been brought in, free agency manoeuvring like no other and onus on a style of play unconventional to modern means.
Hurts - 'Defence wins championships'
The statement has never rang truer than today.
"Defence wins championships," quarterback Hurts repeated in his post-match on-pitch interview.
"We saw how they [Eagles defence] play today and the difference they made today and we were able to do what we do."
