The Brief The Eagles pulled out a 24-20 win against the Cowboys to kickoff the NFL season on Thursday. Eagles DT Jalen Carter was ejected on the first play of the game after he spit on Cowboy's QB Dak Prescott. The Eagles led 24-20 with 4:44 left in the third quarter when the game was stopped — and that’s the way it ended. Prescott and Carter exchanged words after the opening kickoff, and Carter spit on Prescott’s jersey before backing away. Carter apologized after the game — Hurts said he spoke to the tackle about his conduct — and said, "It won’t happen again."
