NFL fans mock Eagles' Kenny Pickett over bizarre play that led to fumble

With the game tied at 7 apiece and about 12 minutes left in the first half, Pickett dropped back to throw the ball but didn't release it. He stepped forward as if he was going to throw, but he held onto the football. He followed through as if he were passing, but the ball never left his hand.

NFL fans immediately called it the worst play they have ever seen.

Pickett got the last laugh at the end of the first half. He threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to DeVonta Smith with 6:38 left in the half and then ran the ball into the end zone from the goal line as time expired in the half.

Pickett was thrust into the starting role just before the Eagles' penultimate game of the 2024 season against the Cowboys. Jalen Hurts suffered a concussion in the first quarter of last week's loss to the Washington Commanders and wasn't fully healthy in time.

Philadelphia hopes to wrap up the NFC East with a win over the Cowboys. The Washington Commanders are right on their tail at 10-5.

The Eagles are 12-3 this season.
