You never rat out the guy who fixes your messes. That is locker room rule No. 1. But podcast queen and former NFL linebacker Emmanuel Acho apparently missed the memo, trading loyalty for views.
Now Philadelphia Eagles Chief Security Officer Dom DiSandro, known as “Big Dom,” faces an NFL investigation after Acho publicly recounted the incident.
On his “Speakeasy” podcast, Acho (formerly an Eagle) recounted a car wreck from his playing days in Philadelphia. He rear-ended a vehicle on his way to practice, panicked and called team security.
Instead of taking responsibility, Acho said the team allegedly manipulated the official record, effectively shining a light on Big Dom.
“I hit one of our security people. He says, ‘Acho, when the cop shows up, send the cop away. I’m going to send you another cop and that other cop is going to say it wasn’t your fault, it was their fault.’ I was like, ‘Wait, they do that?’ So, I hit him,” Acho said.
“Cop comes up. ‘Hey, everything good?’ I’m like, ‘Everything’s good, don’t worry about it. Somebody is going to come here.’ That cop leaves. We send another cop. The other cop that comes to document says she’s at fault. I was like, ‘Yo, this is crazy.’”
When the driver realized she had been hit by an NFL player, team security stepped in to contain the fallout.
“Our head of security had to offer them two home tickets plus signed jerseys,” Acho said. “And they were like, ‘Oh, no, we’re fine.’”
According to Acho, Big Dom helped bury the incident, only for that favor to come back and put him under the NFL’s microscope years later.
DiSandro now faces heavy league scrutiny. The NFL is reportedly examining whether his alleged involvement in the incident violated league rules or exposed the Eagles to liability.

The NFL previously fined him $100,000 and suspended him from the sidelines following a 2023 dustup with 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw.
Acho sold out Big Dom’s loyalty for cheap podcast clout.
Former Eagles cornerback Asante Samuel blasted Acho online, labeling him an attention-seeking gossip queen. When a guy saves your career, you keep your mouth shut.
Samuel posted on X while reacting to the Big Dom investigation.
“Like I said before, watch who you do business with. We have an investigation going on because fool is dying for attention and a gossip queen smfh.”

Acho has made a habit of trading basic judgment for cheap attention. Following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, he sparked fierce backlash by publicly explaining why he refused to view the political activist as a hero.
“Charlie Kirk, he proudly stated that death by guns is a price we have to pay for our Second Amendment rights,” Acho said in a reaction video.
“It almost feels like me mourning his death by gun is the opposite of what he stood for.”
He added in a follow-up clip, “We have other people trying to memorialize him, and I do not believe he was a hero.”
Whether preaching morality or betraying the man who covered his tracks, Acho always picks clout over code.
