In big-time football, it’s suddenly the late-summer of spitting.
Two nights after Eagles defensive tackle Jalen Carter was ejected from the first NFL game of the season for spitting on Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, University of Florida defensive tackle Brendan Bett was ejected for spitting in the face of an opponent during the final drive of an upset loss to USF.
Bett spat in the face of South Florida offensive lineman Cole Skinner.
It’s not a new thing for Florida. Defensive lineman Jamari Lyons was ejected for spitting on an opponent in 2023, during a game against Florida State.
The NFL takes seriously its obligation to set the tone for all levels of football. And it’s stunning, to say the least, that Bratt would give in to the impulse to spit on someone, when he surely knew (or at least should have known) about Carter’s not-so-magic loogie.
