Jalen Hurts had multiple turnovers in the first half of the Eagles game on Monday night, including two that actually occurred on the same play.
The rare double turnover happened in the second quarter of Philadelphia’s matchup with the Chargers at SoFi Stadium, when Hurts dropped back to pass and heaved the ball right into the gloves of Da’Shawn Hand.
The Chargers defender, though, fumbled as he tried to pick up yards, and Hurts then scooped it back up.
But just moments later, the Super Bowl-winning quarterback dropped the pigskin right back to the turf, and the Chargers were able to recover.
Hurts became the first-ever NFL player to throw a pick and lose a fumble on the same play.
Raiders receiver James Jones is the other player with two turnovers on the same play, fumbling twice during a 2014 game.
The debacle was hardly the only gaffe committed during Monday night’s first 30 minutes.
Hurts actually went on to throw a second interception just minutes after his history-making play, but when Justin Herbert attempted to capitalize on it during the ensuing Chargers drive, he fumbled it right back.
In the final minute of the half, Herbert tacked on another interception — moving the total number of turnovers in the half to a staggering six.
The Eagles were not able to come away with points after the latest Herbert mistake — kicker Jake Elliott missed a 48-yard field goal that would have brought the score to 10-9.
Neither quarterback surpassed the 100-yard passing mark, and neither team eclipsed 100 yards rushing more than halfway through the third quarter.
