Eagles’ Jalen Carter Shows Off $100K Chain Taken from Jared Verse After Rams Clash

After the Philadelphia Eagles’ 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams, all eyes turned to defensive tackle Jalen Carter – not just for his dominant play, but for the chain he wore in his postgame locker room interview.

Carter was seen with a large gold chain featuring a No. 8 pendant, the same number worn by Rams rookie pass rusher Jared Verse. The sight immediately set off speculation among fans that Carter may have won the chain from Verse in a bet tied to last year’s playoff clash.

Adding fuel to the fire, Carter and Verse had already exchanged heated words before kickoff back in January, when Verse made a pregame lap around Lincoln Financial Field. According to reporters, Verse brushed off the chatter by saying: “Nah, I’ll take that 77K for next round,” a reference to the postseason bonus NFL players receive for advancing in the playoffs.

While rumors swirled, evidence suggests the chain was already Carter’s. He was photographed wearing it while entering the stadium before Sunday’s matchup, indicating it wasn’t exchanged after the game. The Eagles even posted pictures showing Carter arriving with the No. 8 pendant already on him.

The relationship between the two players, however, doesn’t appear to be hostile. Carter and Verse were seen shaking hands and joking before kickoff, showing mutual respect despite last season’s playoff tensions.

Whether the chain truly originated with Verse or has always belonged to Carter remains unclear. For now, one thing is certain: Carter’s fiery play and bold postgame style have fans talking, and the No. 8 chain has become the latest subplot in the Eagles-Rams rivalry.
