Who Is Eagles Quarterback Jalen Hurts’ Girlfriend Bryonna Burrows?
Hurts and Burrows, who works at IBM, recently made their first public appearance together.
In the 2023 Super Bowl, the Philadelphia Eagles will face off against the Kansas City Chiefs at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Fans are excited about the game for many reasons, including Rihanna’s halftime performance, the celebrity-packed commercials, and this Super Bowl being the first in history to feature two Black starting quarterbacks (the Eagles’ Jalen Hurts and the Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes). It’s also the first Super Bowl to feature two brothers battling head-to-head — with some saying Travis and Jason Kelce’s mom already won this year’s Super Bowl.
Despite all the excitement, Hurts, who just made his first public appearance with his girlfriend Bryonna Burrows, has his attention locked in on football. “I think you just have to focus on everything that’s in front of you and keep the main thing, the main thing,” the 24-year-old told reporters on Feb. 2. “There’s a lot of distractions all the time and I think this time of year when you’re fortunate enough to make it this far, they’re amplified. So hopefully everybody can stay focused on the task at hand. Enjoy the moment, embrace the moment — but also stay focused on what matters.”
Still, many fans may be wondering: Who is Hurts’ girlfriend? The quarterback is spoken for, as evidenced by their first public appearance on Jan. 29. Here’s what we know about Bryonna Burrows.
