NFL announcer Cris Collinsworth regales fans with breakdown of ‘double cheek poke’

NBC announcer Cris Collinsworth had an interesting breakdown during the Philadelphia Eagles’ game against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.

Jalen Hurts, who was putting on quite a show at home against the Packers, got his number for a sneaky quarterback on 4 and 2 in the fourth quarter. Hurts got a nice push from a couple of his teammates to get the first down and continue the offense.

Collinsworth described the play as the “double cheek shove” as his teammates’ hands were firmly on the back of Hurts.

“This is a double cheek push here,” Collinsworth said as Mike Tirico laughed in the background. “Now when it goes that way (Hurts Left), sometimes you only get one cheek. But that’s what they do. Time.”

Tirico asked if Collinsworth had to release the description to “the entire United States.”

Collinsworth replied simply, “yes.” NFL fans went wild over the collapse.

The series would end with an Eagles field goal to make it 37-23.

Hurts had over 100 rushing yards in the first quarter. He is now the only quarterback with 100-plus rushing yards in a quarter in the last 30 years, having gone 102-for-52 on the first drive of the game that saw Kenneth Gainwell run from four yards to go up 7-0.
