From the article

Luther Burden is running a quick comeback route for 4-5 yards, but he chops up his break pretty poorly, allowing Cornerback Jacob Parrish to break on the throw and deflect the ball with a well placed hand. The ball deflects perfectly into the waiting hands of Linebacker Alex Anzalone.

Burden's poor route break on comeback allowed deflection INT, graded as bad-luck turnover

Luther Burden III was running a quick comeback route for 4-5 yards on the fourth interception of the game when he chopped up his break poorly, allowing Cornerback Jacob Parrish to break on the throw and deflect the ball. The deflection was caught by Linebacker Alex Anzalone. The source grades this as the only interception not graded as turnover worthy, as batted balls are completely up to chance and out of the control of the quarterback, calling these 'Jay Cutler' picks due to bad luck.
