The Mega Millions jackpot now sits at an estimated $687 million after no tickets matched the winning numbers during Tuesday night's drawing.

The winning numbers drawn Tuesday night were 2, 49, 50, 61 and 70 with a Mega ball of 14. The Megaplier was 2X.

While no one claimed the big bucks, two lucky players – one in California and one in Michigan – matched all five white balls to win the game's second-tier prize of $1 million.
