Jalen Hurts is one of the NFL’s premiere talents, and the league isn’t shy about it. They constantly promote the Eagles signal caller on social media, claiming he is a must-watch football player. That decision may have come back to bite them recently.
Hurts most recently played in the Eagles’ week 15 match-up against the Pittsburgh Steelers, in which they came out victorious by a score of 27-13. Philly would improve to a record of 12-2 on the season, remaining at the top of the NFC East.
In the big win over the Steelers, Hurts had a solid showing, completing 25 of his 32 passes for 290 yards and two touchdowns. So far this season, he is on pace to break the 3,000 passing-yard mark and has almost 20 touchdowns.
The aforementioned win over the Steelers is now gaining a little more attention from NFL fans, but it may not be for the reason the league wants. After posting an X post about Hurts, they decided to fine him for the reason they made the post.

“The NFL is so SOFT,” said one user.
“bro running the nfl account wasn’t aware of the rules,” claimed another.
“This is crazy,” added one fan.
Another fan even decided to question the NFL, asking, “How can you say, “Yeah, you can wear that,” and then, “Oh, that will be $5,000”?“
“So lame smh,” commented one fan.
“Thats crazy 5k over damn shoes,” exclaimed another
“What rule does this break,” asked another fan.
It seemed many fans were in the same, as another fan questioned, “What’s going on?“
As we all know, the NFL is huge on enforcing its rules, especially regarding the uniform policy. While Hurts’ choice of cleats doesn’t hurt anyone or affect his playing ability, the two different colored cleats are not allowed, and it seems the social media guy didn’t know. Unfortunately, that’s the game!
