Jazz team plane hits a flock of birds upon takeoff and is forced to land due to engine failure

The Jazz’s team plane ran into some issues upon takeoff and immediately turned back to Salt Lake City after an engine failure.

Tweet from Flightradar24

DL8944, Salt Lake City-Memphis, returned to SLC shortly after takeoff with what appears to be a left engine issue. Playback is available at https://flightradar24.com/data/aircraft/n651dl#273e0d38… This Boeing 757-200 is powered by PW2037 engines. It's one of the dedicated charter 757s in Delta's fleet.

The same twitter account later confirmed:

The aircraft belongs to Delta. Was carrying the Jazz.

Many Jazz players tweeted immediately following this incident, Donovan tweeted a prayer emoji while others tweeted thankful phrases like “God is good.”

Tweet from Andrea Urban:

I can confirm that this is the Utah Jazz team charter flight. The plane hit birds during takeoff resulting in an engine problem and immediate landing.
