Philadelphia Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell somehow found a way to access his cellphone during Sunday’s game against the Washington Commanders.
As you can see in the screenshot below, a fan on Instagram direct messaged Gainwell and told him to “hold on to the football”. Gainwell responded during the game (presumably around 2:06 p.m. EST), telling the fan to not text him.

The 24-year-old Gainwell had two carries four -4 rushing yards, but he was productive in the passing game with five catches for 30 yads. The Eagles defeated Washington 38-31 to complete the season series sweep while improving to 7-1 on the year.
