Rams QB Matthew Stafford Issues Apology After Refusing Eagles Rookie’s Jersey Swap in Viral Postgame Moment

The Philadelphia Eagles suffered their first loss of the 2025 season in heartbreaking fashion, falling 21-17 to the Denver Broncos after a controversial no-call left fans furious. With just eight seconds remaining, Jalen Hurts delivered a beautiful 40-yard pass toward tight end Dallas Goedert near the 5-yard line — but what could have been the game-winning play ended in frustration. Video replays showed that Broncos safety JL Skinner appeared to grab Goedert’s arm, restricting his ability to make the catch. Despite the clear contact, no flag was thrown. Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni was seen on the sidelines shouting in disbelief, demanding an explanation from the officials as fans at Lincoln Financial Field erupted in anger. After the game, Goedert weighed in on the no-call that had Eagles fans fuming: “Jalen threw it up to me, and they obviously didn’t throw a flag,” Goedert said in the postgame locker room. “Have to go back and see it on tape. But it would have been interesting to see what happened (if they did throw a flag).” Goedert also said he didn’t receive any explanation from referees: “I felt like there was a little bit of contact there. Nothing was called,” Goedert said. “But the game really shouldn’t have even come down to that.” Referee Adrian Hill later defended the decision, saying: “Our officials saw mutual hand fighting and hand-to-hand combat and did not see action that rose to the level of a foul on that play.” The Eagles, who had led 17-3 earlier in the game, collapsed in the fourth quarter as the Broncos scored 18 unanswered points. The loss drops Philadelphia to 4-1 — their first defeat since last December. Goedert and the Eagles will now try to rebound quickly as they prepare for Thursday night’s divisional matchup against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium.
