Get out of here, Deion.

Just in time for the Eagles to face the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday Night Football, "Primetime" himself has taken a jab at Carson Wentz for the way he pieces together his wardrobe.

Except when they stink

Deion Sanders, a sharp but flamboyantly dressed man if there ever was one, was upset because Wentz allegedly canceled a scheduled appearance on the NFL Network's "Gameday Prime." Here he is faulting a postgame Wentz for his imperfectly aligned V-neck undershirt (h/t CrossingBroad).

All of this appears to be in jest, of course. Wentz, if you recall, was suavely outfitted in a JCPenney suit from the Michael Strahan collection back in April when he the Eagles drafted him.

What did Sanders want Wentz to wear? This Atlanta Falcons-era relic?

In the end, as we all know, what matters is whether Wentz can find his way into a yellow Hall of Fame jacket.

He can start with a win in Dallas.
