WATCH: Eddie Jackson snags INT off Aaron Rodgers, ends Rodgers' NFL-record streak
Green Bay Packers QB Aaron Rodgers has always taken care of the ball, putting it where only his receivers can catch it.
Heading into Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears, Rodgers had taken that ball security to a new level, and in the fourth quarter, had extended his record streak without an interception to 402 passes.
However, as you can see in the video below, pass No. 403 was tipped, landing in the arms of former Alabama DB Eddie Jackson:
“Aaron Rodgers is approaching a NFL record with 400 consecutive passes without an interception.”

Jackson is one of the NFL’s best ballhawks after serving the same role for the Crimson Tide during his time there.
Unfortunately, Jackson appeared to injure his ankle while sliding after the pick. He was helped into the locker room, so we’ll see how severe the injury is soon.
