Patriots fans revive dream (and unlikely) trade scenario after Eagles' win

The 2025 NFL season officially kicked off on Thursday night, as the Super Bowl Champion Eagles welcomed one of their most bitter rivals, the Cowboys, to Philadelphia. All eyes were on the game, which was chippy from the very beginning, as impressive pass rusher Jaylen Carter was ejected very early on.

That seemed to set the tone of the rest of the night, with several instances of fights breaking out before and after the lightning delay. But beyond that being one of the more notable parts of the evening, Patriots fans couldn't help but notice their dream receiver was seemingly ignored all night long.
