Born in Melton Mowbray and a product of Melton R.F.C,[1] Hurrell was educated at Loughborough Grammar School and Wyggeston and Queen Elizabeth I College. He was capped by the England U20s.

Hurrell began his career with Leicester Tigers before joining London Welsh for their Championship-winning season in 2011-12. He left the club at the end of the season to study at Aston University. He played for Coventry in National League 1 while at university, before joining Doncaster ahead of the 2015–16 Championship season.

Hurrell announced his retirement in April 2020 on medical advice after suffering a probable stroke following a head injury in a game against Leicester.[4]
