The NFL world is getting ready for a historic Super Bowl clash between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs. It will be the first time in NFL history that a Super Bowl game features two African-American quarterbacks in Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes. But the game is historic in one other aspect as well. This is also the first time when a black woman agent is representing a quarterback in the Super Bowl.

Hurts’ agent Nicole Lynn faced a lot of hindrances in the industry because of her gender. But the Eagles QB revealed how she gained his trust with three immeasurable qualities.

Jalen Hurts reveals the three best qualities of Nicole Lynn

Jalen Hurts has established himself as an elite QB in the NFL. He is a trailblazer as a running QB. But he is also a trailblazer in other aspects of his sporting life. The Eagles QB has a woman agent to represent him; Nicole Lynn of Klutch Sports Group. And in an interview, Hurts revealed the best qualities that made him sign her as his agent.

Hurts saw Lynn’s experience, work ethic and the sense of trust she evoked in him despite everyone telling him that she is a woman, the QB told Sports Illustrated last year. He said, “People are going to doubt her because she’s a woman in this industry. There was a sense of doubt. Why is she doing this? Can she represent a quarterback? What’s she going to do with him?”

Hurts is in the midst of a career defining season. After some initial doubts, he has established his authority on his position in the league, just as his agent did.

A meteoric rise at the highest level

Many analysts had doubts around Jalen Hurts when he entered the 2020 NFL draft. The Eagles picked him up in the second round of the draft that year as a third string option for the squad. But he quickly rose to become a starter towards the end of his rookie season.

2021 saw the Eagles reach the playoffs with Hurts in the center. But he faced the great Tom Brady in the wildcard round and lost to him and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Building on that impressive season, he has now taken the Eagles to the Super Bowl this time. Such a meteoric rise in such a short time. Can he cap off the season of his life with a Super Bowl title?
