During a third-and-2 play in the second quarter, chaos ensued on the field. Jalen Hurts' pass was intercepted by Chargers DE Da'Shawn Hand, who ended up fumbling the ball. The Eagles quarterback managed to recover the ball, but fumbled it before it was ultimately recovered by LB Troye Dye in an unbelievable three-turnover sequence.

During last Thursday's press conference, the Super Bowl LIX champion addressed these reports and denied these claims.

"How did we come to that conclusion or rationalize that? I've always been focused on doing whatever it takes to win and I've always put my energy trying to bring the gameplan and the strategy to life, so I'll continue to do that."
