Philadelphia, PA – July 23, 2025
Philadelphia Eagles star quarterback Jalen Hurts has released a deeply emotional statement addressing a personal family matter that has left fans both shocked and concerned. The NFL MVP, known for his composure and leadership on the field, revealed that a recent private disagreement within his relationship with wife Bryonna “Bry” Burrows has led to a difficult period for his family.
“This has been one of the toughest stretches of my life,” Hurts shared in a written statement posted to his social media late Tuesday evening. “Family is everything to me, and when that foundation feels shaken, it affects every part of who I am.”
While neither Hurts nor Burrows have officially confirmed the details of the disagreement, sources close to the couple suggest the tension arose after conflicting visions regarding personal priorities and time commitments, especially in the wake of their highly publicized second wedding ceremony in Napa Valley just last month.
The two, who met while attending the University of Alabama and tied the knot in early 2025, had appeared inseparable. Hurts frequently praised Burrows during interviews, once describing her as “the calm in my storm.” The news of discord has stunned fans who viewed them as one of the NFL’s most admired young couples.
Close friends and teammates, including Eagles lineman Lane Johnson, have expressed support for the quarterback. “Jalen’s one of the strongest people I know, but even the strongest need space to breathe and time to heal,” Johnson said during a brief media availability on Wednesday.
Though Hurts did not go into detail, he concluded his message by asking for privacy and empathy. “I appreciate the love and support from those who truly know me. I ask that people respect our space while we work through this with grace and faith.”
As the Eagles prepare for training camp in early August, fans and media alike will be watching closely—not only to see Hurts’ performance on the field but to witness how he navigates this chapter in his personal life.
Neither Burrows nor her representatives have issued a public response at the time of reporting.
