Daredevil: Born Again episode 3 saw Matt Murdock back defending clients as he took on the job of handling White Tiger's case. The vigilante had been framed for killing a cop after he tried to stop a pair of corrupt officers attacking someone.

At one point during the case, Matt reveals that Hector Ayala – the man he's defending – is actually White Tiger. Then he goes through all of the Hell's Kitchen officers who have praised him over the years. Reading out file names, he says: "More police reports," and he lists off, "Officer Reyes, Officer Wong, Officer Morales, Officer Grant."

Replying, fans have already been theorising what it may mean. "That mention of Officer Morales feels like a huge hint at the future. It’s not just a casual reference – it's a subtle way of tying Miles Morales to this universe," wrote one. "It makes you wonder if they’re slowly setting up for him to show up down the line. Could be a cool connection to Spider-Man!" Meanwhile, a second added: "Nice Easter egg! Love the tie-ins to Miles' world!"
