Jalen Carter spitting incident
Digest more
Just one play into Thursday's opening game of the 2025 NFL season between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys, Eagles defensive lineman Jalen Carter was no longer available to play — not because of injury, but because of, apparently, spit.
Jalen Hurts scored two touchdowns as the Eagles battled through a weather delay and Jalen Carter's ejection to beat the Cowboys, 24-20.
Jalen Hurts laughed when asked about Michael Jordan and the shrug. He didn’t directly address whether he was trying to be like Mike when he raised his shoulders and held out his hands after his first touchdown.
