Jaire Alexander had a rough game against the Eagles as the CB wasn’t able to contain their splendid offense led by QB Jalen Hurts, scoring 40 points to take home the victory.
Alexander suffered a brutal blow during the game resulting in an injury for the Packers CB. While he was walking off the field, the 25-year-old decided to give the Eagles’ fans the bird.
Philadelphia is known for its brutal fans and the awful receptions they give to the visiting teams. Alexander gave the Eagles’ fans some of their own medicine by showing them the bird.
The Packers ultimately lost the game 40-33 as they were booed throughout the game without any breaks. The Packers’ defense lacked strength and numerous players suffered heavy physical blows while containing the Eagles.
Alexander got off the pitch due to an injury. However, the 25-year-old was being constantly boo’d and was even shown the middle finger by many Eagles fans.
On the other hand, the Eagles had a great game against the Packers and dominated completely. QB Jalen Hurts also made a record in the game as he went for 16 of 28 completions and scored two touchdowns and zero interceptions. The Eagles’ attack was too much for someone like Jaire Alexander to handle.

Jaire Alexander was met with mixed reception from NFL Twitter
Jaire Alexander is a highly polarizing CB where people either hate him or love him. There’s no middle ground. The same was visible on NFL Twitter when the video of Alexander showing his middle finger to Eagles fans went viral.
Some supported Alexander for his bravery to stand up to one of the most hardcore fan bases in the NFL, while others completely bashed and accused him of faking injuries and having loads of attitude.
Alexander giving the bird to Eagles’ fans became a controversial incident and was the major highlight of an already great game. The Packers’ offense also worked hard as they put up 33 points.
NFL Twitter was divided and everyone had different reactions and conclusions to the same situation. Take a look at some of them down below.

— BEARS NATION 🐻 👀 (@BADBUNNYSON) November 28, 2022Embarrassing. Your defense has been torched all night. Sick of his attitude.
— Brew Crew (@Brewcrew70000) November 28, 2022Jaire Alexander gotta be the most hilarious player in the NFL. He may annoy some but I love the energy he brings every play
— Jamal (@FinessedBuckets) November 28, 2022Complete loser, nothing like faking an injury down 2 scores 😂 but congrats on getting the crowd even more fired up
— Matt Donaher (@M_donaher) November 28, 2022This was all night when we sped uptempo, @JaireAlexander the biggest, softest, coward I’ve even seen play football. If you can’t take the heat in Philly — you don’t deserve your contract. Act like a pro. You’re gonna get boo’d at the linc. Get over it. https://t.co/J5lQmjU1Hw

— Shotgun Spratling (@ShotgunSpr) November 28, 2022This Packers defense is a joke. Jaire Alexander one of the most overrated players in the league
— Mo (@Mo_S10) November 28, 2022Jaire Alexander is extraordinarily cocky for someone who’s paid $21 million a year, but continues to be a key part of an embarrassingly awful defence
— Jamie Weir (@jamiecweir) November 28, 2022“Wow the Eagles have the classiest fan base….”said no one ever.
— Brandon Fulton (@Brandon40805452) November 28, 2022Packers CB Jaire Alexander leaves the field and gives the Eagles crowd the bird roughly a dozen times as he makes his way to the sideline.
— James Palmer (@JamesPalmerTV) November 28, 2022The Packers are currently 4-8 in the NFL and their chances of making the playoffs look bleak. Green Bay will face the Chicago Bears in their next game and hope to get a victory that can improve their abysmal record.
