It’s the last game of the season. And the Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is back in the Super Bowl with a vengeance. In 2023, they lost to the Chiefs by 35-38, after dominating them for almost the entire game. But this time, the signal caller wants to make money as well. He doesn’t mind a small risk in the process.
On the evening of February 9, the QB didn’t wear the team shows. Instead, he opted for a banned cleat, special-edition “Banned” Jordan 1 Bred cleats, in red and black. On the backside, it has the word ‘Unbannable,’ clearly mocking the league for banning them. Fans noticed them when he started practicing in the Caesars Superdome.
Yes, Jalen Hurts is going to get fined for not wearing team colors.
And yes, it’s worth every penny for Nike & Jordan, who are likely going to pay it.

Stay tuned. This story is developing.
