You can add another chapter to the embarrassing book that is the history of FedEx Field.
After Philadelphia held on for a 20-16 victory over Washington, several Eagles’ fans were leaning against a security rail as quarterback Jalen Hurts was leaving the field into the locker room.
The security rail collapsed as the fans tried to get closer to Hurts, sending several fans to the ground.

Fortunately for everyone involved, including Hurts, no one was injured. Hurts then spent several minutes talking to the fans and taking pictures.
After returning to the locker room, Hurts spoke to the media and said he was glad everyone was safe.
“I’m just happy everyone’s safe… crazy stuff, that’s a real dangerous situation… passionate Eagles fans, I love it!”

Sadly, Philadelphia fans applied more pressure on its quarterback than Washington defenders did in 60 minutes.
