Highlights have been harder to come by than usual for the Philadelphia offense this season.

On Monday night, Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts pulled off something that is sure to be on highlight reels for years to come -- though it won't rank as one of his best moments -- as he committed two turnovers on the same play.

With 8:30 left in the second quarter and the Eagles trailing 7-3 to the host Los Angeles Chargers, Hurts was intercepted by Chargers defensive tackle Da'Shawn Hand at the Los Angeles 17. Eagles running back Will Shipley quickly chased down Hand and forced a fumble.

The ball squirted forward and back into the hands of ... Hurts. But as quickly as he could grab the ball, Hurts had the ball punched out by Chargers defensive tackle Jamaree Caldwell. After the ball rolled another 10 yards in Los Angeles' favor, Chargers linebacker Troy Dye recovered the ball, bringing the chaotic play to an end.

According to the Elias Sports Bureau, Hurts is the first player in NFL history to turn the ball over twice on one play. He threw two more interceptions in the game.

Hurts, the 27-year-old reigning Super Bowl MVP, entered the game with only two interceptions and two lost fumbles, but the Eagles also entered the contest in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per game.

The Eagles began Monday in first place in the NFC East at 8-4, with the Dallas Cowboys second at 6-6-1 and the Washington Commanders and New York Giants eliminated from playoff contention.
