Jared Verse played in rivalry games in high school and walked into hostile environments in college. But he said this — Sunday’s NFC divisional playoff game at Lincoln Financial Field — was different.

Rams edge rusher Jared Verse said he did not like Eagles fans this week leading up to Sunday's divisional round game. The fans responded to his comments before the game.

Before the Los Angeles Rams took on the Philadelphia Eagles in the divisional round of the playoffs, the rookie defensive end got a lot of hate from Eagles fans. And he was fully embracing it. Earlier this week, Verse said, "I hate Eagles fans. They're so annoying. I hate Eagles fans."
