Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa by the numbers

Week 7's "Sunday Night Football" matchup between the Miami Dolphins and Philadelphia Eagles is one that has likely been circled on the calendars of Alabama Crimson Tide fans for some time.

It'll mark the first time that Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa, the two former Alabama standout quarterbacks, will share the field since their time as college teammates.

In his freshman season, Tagovailoa replaced a struggling Hurts in the 2018 College Football Playoff National Championship against the Georgia Bulldogs. Coach Nick Saban made the decision to bench Hurts, who was 3-of-8 for 21 yards, as the Crimson Tide faced a 13-0 deficit at halftime.

In the end, Tagovailoa connected with current Eagles receiver DeVonta Smith on a game-winning touchdown pass in a 26-23 overtime comeback victory. "He just stepped in and did his thing," Hurts said after the national championship. "He's built for stuff like this. I'm so happy for him."

Hurts was Tagovailoa's backup the following season, then transferred toOklahoma.

"He went down a different road than I did to get to where I'm at," Tagovailoa said of Hurts before Week 7. "And he had to go down a different road to get to where he's at. But like I said, I got a lot of respect for him -- who he is as a person, who he is as a player and wish him the best of luck as we play him."

Both signal-callers have seen significant success in college and in their NFL careers -- and here are the numbers that prove it:
