The NFL world exploded in anger on Thursday night after Philadelphia Eagles star Jalen Carter was ejected from his game against the Dallas Cowboys before even playing a snap.
After the kickoff, Eagles and Cowboys players began to talk trash. Carter was seen spitting toward Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott and in front of an NFL official. The official threw a flag on the play, which penalized Carter and ejected him from the game.
NFL fans appeared to watch in unison as he committed the dastardly foul.
NBC later showed that Prescott spit toward the ground before Carter’s actions. It’s unclear what was said between the two players.
The league could suspend Carter for his actions. Pro Football Talk reported that it will depend on how remorseful Carter is for his actions. A source told the outlet that one of the talking points among the league, clubs and players was “respect for the opponent.”
Since then, he’s been a focal point of the interior defensive line. He had 4.5 sacks and 42 total tackles in 2024. He was a Pro Bowler for the first time in his career.
