The Rock opened up a wound caused by the residual pain of the Philadelphia Eagles' disastrous 2023 season by telling fans at WWE World in Philly that he arrived two hours late because he was watching YouTube highlights of Jalen Hurts lose in the playoffs again.
Hurts and the Eagles fell 32-9 to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Wild Card round last January. Philadelphia has made the playoffs in all three seasons of the Hurts era, and the former Alabama and Oklahoma star has done very well overall as the Eagles star quarterback, earning a pair of Pro Bowl honors and finishing as the NFL MVP runner-up in 2022.
