"My QB Is More Clutch Than Yours": Jalen Hurts' Mom Sends Strong Message to Jeffrey Simmons and Co. After Last-Second Win Against Titans
The Philadelphia Eagles came down to Nashville with a sea of green to rally against the Tennessee Titans. But defensive tackle Jeffrey Simmons turned up the heat with what looked like a dig at quarterback Jalen Hurts.
In a last-second victory against the Tennessee Titans, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts showcased his clutch performance, leading his team to a 24-20 win. Hurts' mother, Pamela, responded to defensive tackle Jeffrey Simmons' comments about Hurts' clutch ability with a strong message on TikTok. While Simmons had criticized Hurts' ability to remain in the pocket and control the run game, Hurts delivered a standout performance, completing 26 of 37 passes for 264 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions, including a game-sealing 3-yard touchdown pass with nine seconds left in the fourth quarter.
Despite Simmons' claims, he later clarified that he meant to keep Hurts in the pocket and limit his scrambling tendencies, as Hurts' legs can impact defenses. Hurts' ability to impact the game in various ways, both through his passing and running, was evident during this win. In 2025, Hurts accounted for 3,224 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, 421 rushing yards, and eight rushing touchdowns while maintaining a solid completion rate of 64.8%.
Head coach Nick Sirianni praised Hurts' commitment to improvement and his consistent desire to win. As the Eagles face their next challenge against the Chicago Bears, fans will be intrigued to see if Hurts can maintain his recent form.
