Jadeveon Clowney is not exactly looking forward to his return to Philadelphia.
Clowney’s Carolina Panthers are set to visit the Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pa., on Sunday. Clowney was asked Thursday about visiting Philly, and he had some mixed remarks about Eagles fans.
Clowney said that Eagles players probably love their fans, but that other teams probably can’t stand Eagles fans.
“They throw stuff at you. They talk the most junk out of any fans,” Clowney said of Eagles fans.

Eagles fans probably are holding something more against Clowney than other players. The former No. 1 pick has a history of hits against Eagles quarterbacks that have left Philly fans upset. One came on Nick Foles in 2018 and another came on Carson Wentz in 2019.
I hope Eagles fans don’t forget this is the return to Philly for Panthers DE Jadeveon Clowney who was enemy #1 in Philly in the late 2010s.
This is his first time back to Philly as the last 2 times Clowney came here he had cheap shots on both Nick Foles in 2018 almost ripping… pic.twitter.com/szNOLuQDMg

The Panthers struggling at 3-9 probably won’t matter at all to Eagles fans, who will likely give Clowney some harsh treatment regardless. The Eagles are surging at 10-2 and have won 8 games in a row.
