Giants news: Jameis Winston refuses to do Eagles chants during World Cup coverage

Jameis Winston declined to join in Philadelphia Eagles chants during 2026 FIFA World Cup coverage, a moment that quickly resonated with New York Giants fans. Appearing as a guest on the broadcast, the veteran quarterback was asked to participate in the Eagles’ “E-A-G-L-E-S” chant and responded immediately, saying there is “no more obnoxious fan” than those who chant it, and that he would not say “Eagles!” because it is “obnoxious.” The remark went viral on social media, reinforcing the intensity of the Giants–Eagles rivalry in the NFC East. The Giants also enter the season after a significant offseason reset. New York hired former Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh, with Joe Schoen as general manager, and made roster changes including trading defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence II to the Cincinnati Bengals.
