Spoiler: The future Hall of Famer was not a fan of the silly antics.
The Eagles were looking to bounce back after an embarrassing loss to the Bears, and A.J. Dillon decided that the locker room needed some good vibes by way of a gigantic inflatable Easter bunny. It seemed like something that could help the situation, but after their Monday night loss to the Chargers, the playful decoration was removed.
Former Eagles captain Jason Kelce spoke about the positivity bunny on the most recent episode of ‘New Heights,’ and gave his honest opinion about the silly addition to the locker room last week.
“If I’m being very brutally honest, I thought it was a surprise to see the rabbit, because, I’m like, it’s a sign of just too much joking around with something that I think is actually like, you should be really f***ing pissed off about the way you’re playing.
It’s okay to be positive, but this is something you do when everything’s rolling and you’re freaking performing well. You don’t do antics like this when you’ve shit the bed for the last couple weeks.“
Kelce’s opinion didn’t stray far from many fans, who saw the gimmick as nothing more than a distraction to the real problems the team’s been having.
Both Nick Sirianni and Jalen Hurts have been quoting Jeff Stoutland this week, emphasizing that execution fuels emotion, and if they want better vibes, they need to play better football. It’s something they’re certainly capable of, but have failed to do over the past several weeks — but hopefully they can put together a big win against the Raiders and use it to fuel the vibes they’re searching for as they look to the end of the regular season and into the playoffs.
