NFL suspends Philadelphia Eagles' Jalen Carter one game without pay for spitting on Dallas Cowboys' Dak Prescott during their Week 1 game. However, since Carter was ejected before the first play, the suspension is considered served, making him eligible to play against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Carter accepted the discipline and waived his right to appeal. The incident followed Prescott's own spitting incident directed toward the Eagles' huddle. Carter's disciplinary history includes multiple unnecessary roughness penalties and fines. The NFL emphasized sportsmanship this offseason, highlighting the seriousness of such actions.
