It is nearly impossible for any team to make it through the NFL season without a loss. Even the reigning NFC Champions and Super Bowl favorites are going to drop a few games. However, yesterday's game between the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Jets was especially hard to watch.

Despite playing without their star quarterback, New York handed Philadelphia their first loss of the season by a score of 20-14. Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had an uncharacteristically rough showing, tallying three interceptions. It goes to show that not even the best athletes are infallible.

While it was an ugly game, there are some positive takeaways. Most notably, the fresh pair of player-exclusive Air Jordan cleats worn by Hurts. The Pro-Bowler wore the Air Jordan 10 in a clean white and black colorway to match his team's uniforms. Below is everything athletes and fans must know about Hurts' footwear.

The Air Jordan 10 holds a unique place in sneaker history. The old-school basketball shoe was released in 1994 and did not enjoy any championship runs like other models from the legendary sneaker line.

However, Jordan Brand has given the hoop shoe new life by redesigning it as a performance football cleat and supplying it to NFL players. Hurts represented Jordan Brand throughout last season before officially signing with the company in August 2023. Since then, Hurts' already impressive footwear rotation has gone up several levels.

Unfortunately for athletes and fans, neither the normal nor cleated version of the Air Jordan 10 is available at retail price. The silver lining is that online shoppers can stock up on Eagles apparel and footwear on the Nike website

Sunday was a rough outing for Hurts and the Eagles, but we are confident that they will return to form soon. In the meantime, stay tuned to FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news from the sports world.
