Well that’s a wild start to the NFL season.
The 2025 season kicks off tonight with the Dallas Cowboys taking on the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. But the Eagles are going to have to do it without one of their defensive stars after a bizarre incident before either offense even took a snap.
Immediately after the opening kickoff, the refs threw a flag and ejected Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter for the game. And upon closer review, we saw exactly why.
After the opening kickoff, and before the first offensive snap of the game, the Cowboys offense was huddled up getting ready for their first drive of the game when Carter walked up to quarterback Dak Prescott and exchanged words…and spit. As the ref walked up to separate the two, Carter could clearly be seen spitting on Prescott, leading to an immediate ejection and a big hit to the Eagles defense before the game even started.
Absolutely insane. Starting off the season with a little hawk tuah. (I can’t take credit for that joke, that one goes to my buddy Randy in our group chat).
The boneheaded move will no doubt hurt the Eagles without their best defensive player, and on their first drive the Cowboys quickly moved down the field and scored a touchdown less than four minutes into the game.
Bet Carter’s teammates aren’t too happy with him right now either…

The Lord Almighty.
To be honest, it’s been refreshing to see more and more high profile individuals be open about their faith in God. It’s a trend that fellow believers can get behind, and one that could hopefully catch the eye of those who aren’t so sure. Even other athletes like Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud and Hollywood star Chris Pratt have been talking about their faith more openly more and more in recent years.
Faith truly is an important cornerstone of life. I mean… you have to have a lot of faith to attempt this move on the football field:
