"LOS ANGELES -- Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts made the kind of history he'd rather not be associated with when he committed two turnovers on the same play in the first half of Monday night's game against the Chargers. Midway through the second quarter, Hurts threw an interception over the middle to Chargers defensive lineman Da'Shawn Hand, who fumbled during the return. Hurts recovered the ball but fumbled himself as he was hit, with the Chargers recovering the turnover."
"According to Elias, Hurts is the first player to commit two turnovers on the same play dating back to 1978, which is as far back as their research goes. Hurts was intercepted on the next series as well, marking the first time he has thrown an interception on consecutive drives in his career. In all, there were six combined turnovers in the second quarter. That's the most in a quarter since Oct. 27, 2013, when Denver and Washington combined for seven in the fourth."
Jalen Hurts committed two turnovers on the same play in the first half against the Chargers when an interception to Da'Shawn Hand resulted in a fumble that Hurts recovered and then lost while being hit, with the Chargers recovering. Elias research shows no player since 1978 committed two turnovers on the same play. Hurts was intercepted again on the next series, the first time he has thrown interceptions on consecutive drives. The second quarter featured six combined turnovers, the most in a quarter since Oct. 27, 2013. The Eagles have averaged 15.5 points over the past four games and entered the game on a two-game losing streak. Hurts has five turnovers over the past two games.
