“I’ll rather cry for losing a game” – Jalen Carter explains tears during Eagles loss to Niners
Philadelphia Eagles rookie Jalen Carter faced the heat from fans after shedding tears during the team’s 42-19 loss to the San Francisco 49ers, marking the Eagles’ second defeat of the season and snapping a five-game winning streak. The emotional moment occurred as coach Nick Sirianni addressed Carter following a personal foul penalty during an extra point, with the defensive tackle taking swipes at 49ers offensive tackle Matt Pryor.
Carter’s emotional display didn’t go unnoticed, and he found himself under scrutiny from critics. In response, he took to his Instagram Story with a fiery retort:
“I’ll rather cry for losing a game than cry that I’m still broke yall get yall life together.”
The post, overlaying an image of the emotional moment, was quickly deleted, replaced by a more measured comment:
“Know the city got my back #flyeaglesfly” atop a post captioned, “I guess you can’t show any emotion these days.”
The loss to the 49ers marked a significant shift for the Eagles, who had been touted as the NFL’s best team throughout the season. With a conference clash against the Dallas Cowboys looming, the competition in the NFC intensifies, with the Niners, Cowboys, and Detroit Lions all sporting 9-3 records. As the Eagles navigate the challenges ahead, Carter’s emotional response highlights the passion and dedication that players invest in each game, even in the face of adversity.
