Eagles Announce Internal Discipline for Jalen Carter After Spitting Incident on Dak Prescott — Howie’s Strategy May Help Avoid NFL Suspension


Philadelphia, PA — September 5, 2025

The Philadelphia Eagles wasted no time addressing the fallout from Jalen Carter’s ejection for spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott. Rather than waiting on the NFL to hand down its judgment, the franchise imposed its own disciplinary measures — signaling both accountability and an effort to protect its roster stability.

Team officials confirmed Carter has been fined $20,000 internally, an amount equal to 20–50% of his weekly pay. The fine will be directed to charitable causes connected to the organization, including the Eagles Autism Foundation.

Carter must also issue a formal public apology — either through a press conference or a verified social media post — apologizing directly to Prescott, the Cowboys, and the league.

Additionally, the defensive lineman will be required to serve four weeks of community work, participating in programs such as Eagles Care, hospital outreach, and anti-violence initiatives, underscoring the club’s emphasis on responsibility and rehabilitation instead of suspension.

By acting swiftly, the Eagles reframed the controversy as an opportunity for reform. League insiders suggest that such proactive internal punishment often influences NFL officials to soften their stance, potentially allowing Carter to avoid a league suspension.

General Manager Howie Roseman once again showcased his ability to steer through crisis. By combining fines, public accountability, and community-focused service, Roseman positioned the organization as both responsible and strategic — addressing the issue head-on while working to preserve Carter’s availability.

This strategy is not without precedent. In 2018, the Steelers directed Antonio Brown to make a public apology to limit further sanctions, while in 2021, the Eagles required Lane Johnson to participate in mental health initiatives during his absence — demonstrating the effectiveness of internal discipline as a protective measure.

Chiefs Linked To Saints Super Star With 5x Pro Bowl & 2x All-Pro in Blockbuster Trade, Per Source
Kansas City, MO — According to a circulating on X (Twitter), the Kansas City Chiefs have been “linked” to Alvin Kamara—the New Orleans Saints superstar, five-time Pro Bowler and two-time All-Pro—as a potential target ahead of the trade deadline. The speculation has heated up as various outlets have also floated Kamara as a logical “fit” should the Chiefs look to add a versatile, late-season playmaker on offense. At 30, Kamara is a rare dual-threat RB who excels as both a runner and receiver. He tied the NFL single-game record with six rushing touchdowns (Christmas Day 2020 vs. the Vikings), and he has recently been recognized as the Saints’ all-time leader in rushing yards. Across his career: 5× Pro Bowl, 2× Second-Team All-Pro, and a skill set tailor-made for Andy Reid’s motion/spacing concepts—screens, angle/choice routes, safe check-downs, and short play-action. Tactically, if a move ever materialized, Kamara would immediately put stress on short-to-intermediate coverages, force defenses to roll a safety, and give Kansas City intriguing two-back looks alongside Isiah Pacheco on 3rd-and-medium and in the red zone. In this hypothetical scenario, Kamara voices a desire for a fresh challenge after hitting so many personal milestones in New Orleans: “I’ve achieved just about everything with the Saints, and I want a new challenge for myself. What could be better than a team competing directly for a Super Bowl? Just thinking about wearing Red and Gold really excites me.” Source: @nflrums X As of now, there has been no official confirmation from the Chiefs or the Saints regarding any talks. Still, Kamara’s résumé and toolbox explain why his name is quickly paired with Kansas City whenever rumors of an offensive upgrade surface. With 5× Pro Bowls, 2× All-Pro honors, and a proven knack for tilting games as both a runner and receiver, even a whisper on social media is enough to make Chiefs Kingdom perk up.
