Jalen Carter ejected: "What in the f**k": Jason Kelce blasts Jalen Carter for spitting on Dak Prescott and getting ejected in Eagles vs. Cowboys season opener

Jason Kelce couldn't believe what he saw as Philadelphia Eagles star Jalen Carter was at the center of chaos early in the season opener against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday. The All-Pro defensive tackle was ejected from the Week 1 game after appearing to spit on quarterback Dak Prescott.

The incident occurred after Eagles fullback Ben VanSumeren went down on the opening kickoff. While trainers tended to him, Carter walked over to Prescott, and after a brief exchange, appeared to spit in the QB’s direction. Officials wasted no time tossing him from the game.

Eagles legend Jason Kelce could not fathom what had happened.

“What in the f**k just happened,” he tweeted.

Carter is coming off an All-Pro and Pro Bowl season and is slated to play a crucial role in Philadelphia's Super Bowl defense. His absence was immediately felt as the Cowboys marched 53 yards in six plays, capped by Javonte Williams' touchdown run to make it 7-0 early.

Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce's business venture goes big

Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce are crushing it off the field with their beer business. "Garage Beer," the brand owned by the NFL star brothers, received a significant investment from Durational Capital Management, which pushed the company’s valuation to $200 million.

The Wall Street Journal reported that this funding comes as Garage ramps up national marketing and distribution.

"Our vision is simple: to make a domestic light beer that resonates with everyone," CEO Andy Sauer explained. "Over the past year, we have increased our volume over +400%, expanded nationally, and became the fastest growing and one of the most exciting beer brands in the U.S."

Garage Beer focuses on two simple, approachable SKUs: a classic light lager and a Lime variant.

"Durational's partnership is a strong endorsement of what we have achieved to date and our ambitions for the future," Sauer added.

The brand branched out as its own company in Columbus, Ohio, with a relaunch in early 2023. By late 2024, Garage Beer became the best-selling craft light beer in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.
