Nick Foles had a pretty bad night in Monday's 24-10 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams. At least he still got to collect his game check.
A big payday wasn't in the cards for one DraftKings bettor, however. Rob Huntze appeared to have won a cool $1 million prize in a daily fantasy competition before statisticians took one sack away from the Chicago Bears, which dropped Huntze's payout to $3,078.94 (h/t the Action Network):
"Heartbreaking on many levels," Huntze told ESPN's David Purdum.
This is now poised to be the most contested sack since the one Michael Strahan registered on Brett Favre to set the single-season record in 2001.
