A fumble is when the ball comes out of the players posession before he/she is down. If the fumble is recovered by the opposing team, it is considered a turnover and the posession of the ball changes.

It is when the ball carrier drops the ball. Eventually, the other team will try to pick it up because it gives them possession of the ball.
