Jalen Hurts Goes Viral With Awkward Response To Whether He'll Go To The White House
HuffPost
The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback obviously had thoughts, but little to say.
Jalen Hurts won the Super Bowl in February and may have won the internet on Friday.
The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback is going viral for his statement ― or lack thereof ― regarding the team’s scheduled visit to the White House on Monday.
Although team owner Jeffrey Lurie has said that being “celebrated at the White House” is a “time-honored tradition,” Hurts was more reticent when Time magazine asked him Thursday night whether he’d be in attendance to see President Donald Trump.
As the clip below from the magazine’s Time 100 Gala shows, Hurts is a man of few words on the topic, instead just saying, “Ummmmm,” while looking around nervously, before ending the exchange entirely.
