Seth Makowsky has worked with athletes such as the Eagles' Jalen Hurts on concentration skills, using the game of chess as an avenue for decision making.
Philadelphia quarterback Jalen Hurts has won each of his last five regular-season starts in which the Eagles have faced a double-digit deficit. Houston’s C.J. Stroud has the third-most passing attempts by a rookie without an interception to start his career. Despite not taking a snap for Arizona in the preseason, the Cardinals’ Joshua Dobbs has completed nearly 71% of his passes in the last three games, with four touchdowns and zero picks. Some play checkers. These guys play chess.
“The way I was learning and applying it was transforming the way I made decisions,” said Makowsky, who reached out to and studied chess masters from Russia, Italy, South America and elsewhere. “The deeper I went, the more I was making quicker decisions. If I made a mistake, I was able to move quickly beyond it, not letting one mess-up lead to other mess-ups, and have a process for making decisions.” Makowsky isn’t a lifelong football fan.
