Jalen Hurts is known for what he does on the field as a star of the Philadelphia Eagles, but this time his name made headlines for a major decision about his future off the National Football League. The significant announcement involves not only him but also his longtime girlfriend, Brionna Rivera Burrows.

As rumored in recent days, it has been confirmed that Hurts proposed to his girlfriend Bry, marking a joyful step forward in the future of the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback. The news spread after Burrows appeared on September 6 at the Eagles’ game against the Green Bay Packers in São Paulo, Brazil, sporting a distinguished ring on her left hand.

According to Essence, the proposal took place before the start of the 2024 NFL season. Unlike the toughness that football games often display, Hurts planned a romantic moment, complete with a violinist, candles, and red roses scattered on the floor, to ask for his girlfriend’s hand in marriage.

Hurts made his relationship with Burrows official in 2023, although he mentioned that they had been seeing each other occasionally since they first met years ago at the University of Alabama, before the quarterback moved on to play for the Oklahoma Sooners in 2019. The couple had already been seen together publicly on various occasions, such as when the Eagles defeated the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship game in January 2023.
