In one of the strangest starts to an NFL season in recent memory, Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter was ejected after he spit on Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott after the opening kickoff.
First, Eagles fullback Ben VanSumeren suffered what appeared to be a serious knee injury while covering the opening kickoff, leading to an injury timeout. During the stoppage in play, Carter, for some reason, walked up to Prescott, presumably exchanged some words with the Cowboys signal-caller, then inexplicably spit on him.
