REPORT: Philadelphia Eagles Discipline Rookie CB After He Showed Up to Practice Drunk: “You Want to Party? Do It on Unemployment…”
The Philadelphia Eagles have reportedly disciplined a rookie cornerback after he arrived to practice drunk, stunning teammates and infuriating the coaching staff.
According to team sources, the rookie showed up visibly intoxicated during a mid-week workout at the NovaCare Complex. Coaches immediately pulled him from the field, while one veteran leader in the locker room was overheard delivering a blunt warning: “You want to party? Do it on unemployment — not in Philly.”
Head coach Nick Sirianni, known for his fiery passion and demand for accountability, didn’t hold back when asked about the incident. “We have a culture here that’s built on hard work, discipline, and respect for the game,” Sirianni told reporters. “If you don’t buy in, you won’t last.” Sources confirmed the player has been fined and could face a short suspension.
Eagles fans, already restless in a season with championship expectations, lit up social media with mixed reactions. Some demanded the rookie’s release, while others argued he deserves a second chance to prove himself. Former Eagles players also weighed in, reminding the young corner that wearing midnight green is a privilege, not a right.
For a team chasing another Super Bowl run, the message is clear: distractions won’t be tolerated in Philadelphia. Whether this rookie learns from his mistake or drinks away his NFL dream will be determined in the coming weeks.
