Carter was ejected, and it caused a stir within the NFL world. Kelce initially responded by asking, "What in the f**k just happened[?]"
About a half hour later, Kelce followed that up , calling the start of the Eagles-Cowboys game the "most wild start to an NFL season of all time. First play of the game, one player is carted off, the other ejected. I mean[,] everyone knows you don't spit, you swallow [obviously]."
Luckily, the Eagles overcame Carter's ejection, beating the Cowboys 24-20. Prescott made his return to the field after an injury cut his 2024 season short. This was his first game since November 3, 2024. Prescott threw 188 yards, no touchdowns or interceptions.
The Eagles next have a Super Bowl 59 rematch with the Kansas City Chiefs on September 14. The Cowboys will host the New York Giants in Week 2.
