PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- A group of young athletes in Center City are probably still on cloud nine after a brief encounter they will never forget.

Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts called an audible when he spotted a track team about to go for their daily run.

Hurts was passing by Albert Greenfield Elementary School on Thursday when he decided to pull over and give the kids a few fist bumps and words of encouragement.
