<p>&mdash; Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1647978465105264640?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 17, 2023</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Schefter followed his <a href="https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/1647979054128062466?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">post</a> by tweeting that the 24-year-old&#8217;s &#8220;five-year contract extension includes a no-trade clause — a first in Eagles&#8217; history, per source.&#8221;</p>
<p>The Eagles later confirmed Hurts was &#8220;here to stay&#8221; with a post on <a href="https://twitter.com/Eagles/status/1647982366768414724?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Twitter</a>. The team also posted on its <a href="https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/news/eagles-jalen-hurts-contract-extension" target="_blank" rel="noopener">website</a> that it had signed a deal with Hurts for five years through the 2028 season, but other details were not provided.</p>
<p>&#8220;The thing with Jalen that I&#8217;m so optimistic about is he&#8217;s just got this incredible – I&#8217;m not telling you anything you don&#8217;t know here, but seeing him virtually every day, he&#8217;s got an incredible passion for being phenomenal,&#8221; Eagles Chairman and CEO Jeffrey Lurie said recently at the NFL Annual Meeting in Phoenix. &#8220;You see that in the great ones. We all know in other sports and with certain quarterbacks in this league, you can define them by their obsession with detail and work ethic.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;We always knew Jalen was talented, had a very live arm that we thought was discounted in college because he was such a great runner, and his character was always considered great, but maybe the advantage we had was we really respected his ability to throw the football and that that would improve based on tremendous work ethic,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>In 2020, the Eagles selected Hurts in the second round of the NFL draft. He started four games that season and became the Eagles&#8217; full-time starter the following year. Last season, he led Philadelphia to Super Bowl LVII, where they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs 38-35.</p>
