Overview

  • Carter was fined for unsportsmanlike conduct after gesturing toward the Rams’ sideline following a fourth-quarter field goal block in Philadelphia’s 33-26 win.
  • The league announced the $11,593 fine on Saturday, specifying taunting as the violation.
  • He was ejected seconds into the season opener for spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott and was docked his Week 1 game check of about $57,222.
  • His known 2025 financial penalties now total $68,815 as the NFL enforces a stated emphasis on sportsmanship.
  • Head coach Nick Sirianni said team discipline and guidance for Carter are being handled privately as the Pro Bowl tackle continues to play a major role for the Eagles.
