Jalen Hurts Becomes Part-Owner of the Philadelphia Phillies After His Community-Driven Actions in Philly


|Philadelphia has a new kind of double threat. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts, already the face of the city’s football future, has officially joined the ownership ranks of the Phillies as a part-owner.

The announcement came October 1, 2025, marking a milestone not just for Hurts, but for Philadelphia sports as a whole. Unlike NFL rules that prevent players from owning NFL teams, MLB places no such restrictions on cross-sport investments.

Jalen Hurts, who signed a record five-year, $255 million extension with the Eagles in 2023, invested a portion of his earnings into a minority stake in the Philadelphia Phillies. Beyond his business ventures, Hurts has also made significant contributions to the community by donating to and investing in social welfare funds. These efforts support the development of critical infrastructure, including hospitals and community facilities, aimed at improving the lives of children and residents in underserved areas.

“I’ve always said Philly is home,” Hurts explained in a press release. “The Phillies represent the same grit and fight as this city. Owning even a small part of that is a blessing.”

The move strengthens ties between two of the city’s most passionate fan bases. Hurts has already been spotted at Citizens Bank Park supporting stars like Bryce Harper and Zack Wheeler, often drawing roaring ovations from the crowd.

While his role will not affect baseball decisions, Hurts is expected to contribute through marketing, community engagement, and local initiatives — areas where his leadership and presence have already made an impact in Philadelphia.

This is also not Hurts’ first business step beyond the gridiron. He has endorsement deals with major national brands and has hinted at long-term plans to expand his influence in sports and community development.

 

For Eagles and Phillies fans alike, the partnership signals more than dollars. It’s a declaration of loyalty. By anchoring himself deeper into the city, Jalen Hurts is investing in a legacy that could outlast his playing career.

Chiefs Linked To Saints Super Star With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade, Per Source
Kansas City, MO — According to a circulating on X (Twitter), the Kansas City Chiefs have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Chiefs look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set tailor-made for Andy Reid’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Kansas City intriguing two-back looks alongside Isiah Pacheco on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Red and Gold really excites me.” Source: @nflrums X As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Chiefs or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Kansas City whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Chiefs Kingdom perk up.
