Rams announcer confuses Eagles' tush push for Jalen Hurts 'TD run'

The West Coast may have not known what the "brotherly shove" or "tush push" was ahead of Sunday's matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and Philadelphia Eagles, but there's a good chance they know now.
The Eagles ran their special quarterback sneak on first-and-goal, pushing Jalen Hurts into the end zone to take a 17-14 lead at the half.
The NFL broadcast got it right, but the press box announcer at SoFi Stadium questioned the Eagles' infamous play.
"TD run? by Jalen Hurts," the announcer said.
The Eagles have now successfully run the "tush push" 38 times on 42 total attempts.
The play has recently drawn even more attention than in the past after a handful of other teams tried to replicate it and failed.
All of the attention and heated debates have the NFL planning to investigate it next off-season and potentially ban it.
But, for now, the Eagles are not breaking any rules and they're going to keep using it to their advantage until they can't anymore.
"Any time we put a play in that maybe not a lot of people run and that there could be anything within the rules, we’ll always look into that," Eagles' head coach Nick Sirianni told reports ahead of Week 5's matchup. "We knew the rules, and that was completely legal, and it’s been a good play for us, a really good play for us because the guys make it go and make it work.”
