The NFL officially handed Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter his punishment for spitting at Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott before last Thursday night's game, causing him to be ejected before a single snap from scrimmage.
Carter was fined $57,222 by the NFL. The Week 1 game he missed from being ejected will serve as the one-game suspension for Carter, meaning he won't be suspended for any more games.
Carter will not appeal the NFL's decision, but instead focus on the Eagles' highly-anticipated Super Bowl LIX rematch against the Chiefs slated for Sunday afternoon.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
