Rams star rookie Jared Verse gets blunt about Philadelphia fanbase ahead of playoff game: 'I hate Eagles fans'

"I hate Eagles fans," Verse, who attended three years of high school in Pennsylvania, told the outlet. 

"They're so annoying. I hate Eagles fans," he continued. 

"When I see that green and white, I hate it. I actually get upset. Like, I actually get genuinely hot."

The Rams are hoping Verse will channel his anger towards the Eagles fans when he is on the field, as the team is traveling to Philadelphia to try and upset the Eagles.

The Eagles won that matchup 37-20, and Barkley ran wild, amassing 302 scrimmage yards, including 255 rushing yards with two touchdowns.

Verse said even though the game was in Los Angeles, he heard heckling Eagles fans, despite wearing headphones. 

"I didn't even do nothing to 'em. It was my first time playing. Oh, I hate Eagles fans," Verse said. 

Verse's play in the regular season has him on the shorttlist to potentially win defensive rookie of the year, as Verse had 4.5 sacks with 66 total tackles and was named to the Pro Bowl. 

The Rams are playing the Eagles at 3 p.m. ET on Sunday, where the rookie is sure to hear the noise from Eagles fans.
