PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts is humbled by being a finalist for the NFL Most Valuable Player Award. But Hurts is keeping his focus on leading the Eagles to the Super Bowl. The Eagles will host the NFC championship game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. No Eagle has won MVP since QB Norm Van Brocklin in 1960. Hurts continues to brush off concerns he’s still bothered by his sprained right shoulder. He says: “I’ve felt better, but it doesn’t really matter.” Hurts says, “I’ve got to get it done.”
