Philadelphia Eagles outside linebacker Jalyx Hunt almost accidentally landed a massive punch on an official in the team’s 10-7 win over the Green Bay Packers on Monday night at Lambeau Field.

That celebratory fist pump almost turned into a punch, as Hunt didn’t see the official walking toward him and nearly clobbered him, as he just ducked out of the way in the nick of time.

Thankfully for Hunt and the Eagles, Hunt’s fist missed the official, and the second-year player stayed in the game, where if he connected with the referee he almost surely would have been ejected. Hunt had five tackles, one sack and two tackles for loss in the Eagles' win.
Hunt said after the game he was glad his fist pump was high, giving the official time to move.
"I saw (how close it was) on the big screen. I did that in the Super Bowl last year too. They got to stay away from me, gang, I'm hyped up," Hunt told NFL Network after the game.
