In a story that’s shaking both the tech and sports worlds, reports have surfaced claiming that Elon Musk — CEO of Tesla and one of the richest men on Earth — offered NFL superstar Jalen Hurts an astonishing $100 million deal to become the global ambassador for the long-rumored Tesla Pi smartphone.
However, what shocked everyone wasn’t the offer itself — it was Hurts’ reaction. According to insiders, the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback politely declined the deal and completely avoided further talks, leaving Musk and his team “speechless.”
Sources close to Hurts suggest the decision was driven by his personal principles and focus on football, as the 26-year-old star has been laser-focused on leading the Eagles to another Super Bowl run this season. Others, however, believe there may be deeper reasons — possibly linked to Hurts’ exclusive partnerships and his commitment to authenticity over money.
Fans and analysts across social media are in disbelief. One fan commented, “Turning down $100 million from Elon Musk? That’s a level of self-control most people can’t imagine.”
Whether it was a matter of loyalty, discipline, or silent defiance, one thing is certain — Jalen Hurts just proved that not even the world’s richest man can buy his focus or integrity.
