Nobody seems surprised that emerging talents on the deffensive side of the ball for Philadelphia includes defensive tackle Jalen Carter, linebacker Zack Baun, and rookie cornerbacks Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean.

Eagles superstar Jalen Carter shocks fans
One of the defensive plays of the Eagles that stood out during the punishment they gave the Chiefs during Super Bowl LIX involved Jalen Carter and Patrick Mahomes. With under 10 minutes remaining in the game, Philadelphia’s defensive tackle Milton Williams strip-sacked Mahomes. A second after Williams jarred the ball loose, Carter blasted Mahomes in the facemask with his left hand.
Fans and NFL commentators highlighted the play and were shocked that the NFL didn’t fine Jalen for his apparent hit to Patrick‘s helmet. However, the league did fined Milton with $14,069 for dunking over the crossbar after the ensuing strip-sack.
And Carter is not done. On a video posted on social media, the young star showed off his new massive tattoo, a full torso piece that stretches across his arms and it features an angel, an eagle, a gorilla, and a lion with a street signs that reads Apopka, the Florida city he grew up in. He’s ready to be a dawg once again.
A bright future ahead for Jalen Carter
Jalen Carter was named to the 2023 Pro Football Writers of America’s All-Rookie Team, one of four defensive linemen selected that year. The former Georgia Bulldog was drafted by the Eagles with the ninth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The defensive tackle arrived to the City of Brotherly Love with high expectations, and he did not disappoint.
In 16 games during his rookie year, Carter recorded 30 tackles, 47 quarterback pressures, nine quarterback hits, and six sacks in 563 defensive snaps. He also forced two fumbles and recovered one fumble. Opposing teams noticed Carter’s dominance along the defensive line early on.
While many will commend Carter for his pass-rush abilities, he quietly became a strong run defender over the year, proving that he is a versatile weapon for the Eagles. Per Pro Football Focus, Carter’s 25.2% positive run grade rate was the best amongst qualifying rookie defensive linemen.
