Jalen Carter upset a lot of people.
Carter and Jayden Daniels could be facing off for years to come as NFC East rivals, and their most important matchup certainly had tons of fireworks.
The Eagles’ defensive tackle had two tackles in the game against the Commanders, and he had a message for Washington after the contest.
Jalen Carter, the No. 9 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, stated, “Sent Y’all to Cancun” after the game.
Once that video went viral on social media, many fans reminded him of his past.
Jalen Carter previously pleaded no contest to two misdemeanor charges of reckless driving and racing that stemmed from a car crash that killed two people. Georgia offensive lineman Devin Willock and recruiting analyst Chandler LeCroy were killed in a car crash that injured two other passengers.
In what was thought to be a single-car crash, police announced that they believed Carter and LeCroy were racing.

Eagles’ Jalen Carter Might be Hearing From The League Office
Jalen Carter earned All-Pro honors in his second year and was instrumental in the Eagles advancing to Super Bowl 59.
However, he might be hearing from the league office over his actions during the NFC Title game.
With less than six minutes to play in the NFC Championship game, Carter decked Commanders offensive lineman Tyler Biadasz right in his face.
No flag was thrown, but that does not mean he still won’t be punished.
