In the Eagles’ overtime victory against the Bills on November 26, there was a contentious incident involving Buffalo defensive tackle Jordan Phillips knocking down Philadelphia offensive lineman Cam Jurgens after an Eagles’ maneuver.
Following the game, Eagles center Jason Kelce, who hosts the podcast New Heights alongside his brother Travis, expressed his belief that Phillips should face a fine for his actions against his teammate. In response, Phillips dismissed Kelce’s remarks and showed little regard for the prominent Eagle player.
Phillips suggested that Kelce’s sudden vocal stance, empowered by his presence on his brother’s podcast, lacked coherence and validity. The tackle particularly argued that Kelce had no grounds to criticize Phillips’ actions, pointing out Kelce’s own aggressive movements during the Eagles’ well-known “tush push” tactic. Phillips claimed that Kelce frequently aimed at opponents’ knees and attempted to roll them up during plays. Consequently, Phillips found it unreasonable for Kelce to demand a penalty for actions he deemed questionable, given Kelce’s own conduct on the field.
The match was notably intense in various aspects. Jordan Phillips, Shaq Lawson, and Greg Rousseau gained online attention for an incident involving an Eagles fan following the game. Lawson was seen pushing the fan during this interaction, which caught widespread attention and went viral.
