forced fumbles
Caused ball losses
Forced fumbles is a football statistic tracking instances where a defensive player causes an opponent to lose control of the ball, typically through a tackle, strip, or hit.
The stat credits the defender who dislodged the ball, distinguishing their effort from fumbles caused by a ball carrier's own error: He led the league in forced fumbles last season.
