Eagles' Long pranks teammate Cox by posing as Delta Air Lines on Twitter
Everyone seems to get a little more agitated than necessary when traveling, and football players are not immune.
Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox was just like everyone else on Sunday after his flight was delayed for a second time, taking to Twitter to vent about his flight delays.
Two flights two delays @Delta im need something besides a survey after this flight 😡😡😡

New teammate Chris Long took the opportunity to poke fun at Cox's situation while simultaneously mocking the airline by pretending to be Delta on Twitter. He's changed his Twitter profile back since, but SB Nation's Mark Hinog caught a screen grab before it was too late.
Long changed his profile back to his own to make sure Delta didn't get any more bad press than Cox was giving them.
I'm changing my name back because I actually love Delta

Unlike Long's joke, Delta's actual response to Cox was pretty much exactly what you would expect.
Hi Fletcher. I am so sorry for your inconvenience. Hopefully you guys won't be waiting much longer. We appreciate your... 1/2

Once your entire travel has been completed, we will definitely review your reservation to discuss compensation options. *HSD
