Aaron Donald names Jalen Carter as successor

As the Philadelphia Eagles prepare for their NFC Championship game against the Washington Commanders, quarterback Jalen Hurts' fitness remains a concern following a knee injury. Amidst this uncertainty, Eagles rookie defensive tackle Jalen Carter is receiving high praise from retired Rams star Aaron Donald, who has called Carter his 'replacement' in the league. LeSean McCoy, who shared the news, highlighted Carter's impressive impact in his rookie season, including crucial plays in the playoffs. Carter's performance has drawn comparisons to Donald, a three-time Defensive Player of the Year, and his potential is seen as vital for the Eagles' championship aspirations. With a strong defense led by Carter, the Eagles are viewed as top contenders for the Super Bowl this season. Both teams have faced off twice this season, with the Eagles winning one match and the Commanders winning the other, setting the stage for a competitive showdown this Sunday.
