The first-time Pro Bowler is reminded of last season’s Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs every time he opens his phone, with a picture of himself walking off the field drenched in Chiefs-colored confetti.
With this picture as motivation, some fans believe a Hurts takeover is on the way.
One fan said: “The rest of the league in big trouble that’s all imma say leave it at that #birdgang.”
A second replied: “League & Super Bowl MVP loading.”
Another added: “Dawg on a Revenge Tour.”
And a fourth declared: “Haters gonna hate. My QB1 coming back for it all!”
Last season was Hurts’ second at the helm as starting quarterback, going 14-1 in the regular season.
In the regular season, Hurts finished as runner-up in MVP voting behind superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
He threw for a career-high 3,700 yards and 22 touchdowns while rushing for an additional 760 yards and 10 scores.
The former Heisman Trophy runner-up led his team all the way to the Super Bowl, with victories over divisional foes the New York Giants and sudden rivals the San Francisco 49ers.
Hurts had one of the best games of his career in the Super Bowl, too.
He completed 27 of 38 passes for 304 yards with a touchdown and a 103.4 passer rating, adding 15 carries for 70 yards and three touchdowns – becoming the first quarterback to rush for three scores in a Super Bowl.
Hurts was also the first player in NFL history with 300 pass yards, 70 rush yards, and three rushing touchdowns in a game.
Mahomes and the Chiefs walked away with the Super Bowl for the second time in four years.
Hurts is hunting for a shot at redemption, with his lock screen just another reminder of where he needs to be.
