Philadelphia eagles star Jalen karter Will not miss any future game to spit Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Duck prescott,
NFL announced on Tuesday that since Carter was participated in the same game from the opener of the last week, the league would consider serving a one-game suspension already on the second year defensive tackle.
This is a significant difference by NFL, which sets an example and sends a message to the players that spitting on a rival will cause a one-game suspension.
According to ESPN’s Adam Skeffer, Carter will leave the price of its week 1 game check $ 57,222, but Eagles Week 2 will be available to play against the Super Bowl Remach. Cenus city chiefThe NFL Players Association also informed the League that Carter has waived its right to appeal for sentence.
Eagles and Carter’s agent Drew Rosenhus also worked on an agreement that the team would not use suspension for zero guarantee in Carter’s contract or sign for confiscation of bonus payments.
After the initial kickoff on Thursday, Eagles was hurt for Fullback Ben vansumarenWhich remained on the ground for several minutes. During the time, Carter and Prescott met face to face, and Carter spit on the prescott as the two started separating.
After Philadelphia’s season-opening win, Carter apologized, saying that it was “a mistake that happened from my side, and it would not happen again.” The violation of the franchise’s second super bowl banner came after the moment.
As NFL considered proper punishment for Carter, many people around the league recalled a message in league meetings by NFL Executive Vice President Troy Vincent earlier this year, who told the head coaches, general managers and officials that the sportsmanship was one of the biggest threats for the league brand.
During that meeting, Vincent warned coaches, GMS and officials that “zero tolerance for the acts that reduce the game” and that the league worked hard on any violations, a source told the sketch.
Eagles can impose their own discipline on Carter, but coach Nick Siriyani said on Monday that any action would be kept in the house.
“I am going to keep everything that I do personal with her, whether you see it on Sunday or not,” Syrianni said. “Everything, every conversation, whether it is a personal conversation, a disciplinary thing, all those things will always be handled privately. I think there is a way to go to team business and when you are doing things with a football team.”
