If Carson Wentz is still the support of the Eagles, he will want to leave Philadelphia. This is according to one ESPN Report published today.
Sources told Adam Schefter that Wentz is unhappy with the current quarterback situation that currently holds him in second string at novice, Jalen Hurts.
Wentz has been playing shit all year and has a 3-8-1 record as a starter in 2020. If he wants to do it elsewhere, of course, go for it.
Three weeks ago, Hurts stepped in for Wentz, who stayed on the bench in a game against Green Bay. The rookie filled admirably, then started and went to win, in the next match vs. the Saints.
Hurts is likely to start the last two Eagles games as the team tries to win a division with a losing history.

Philadelphia will have to figure out what to do with its very well paid QB relatively soon. Sometime in March, Wentz’s $ 22 million base salary becomes guaranteed money. But if Hurts makes the ball for the rest of the year, the quarterback’s question could be easily answered.
The Eagles, however, don’t want the former No. 2 draft pick to get anywhere, at least not yet. A week ago, team sources he told Schefter that the organization plans to keep Wentz. Reminder: He was once the favorite to win MVP in 2017 before breaking his ACL. After Nick Foles stepped in to win the Super Bowl in 2018, Wentz returned to his starting role and led the Eagles to two consecutive playoff seasons.
Former Wentz teammate Torrey Smith devoted himself to it Twitter to attest to the QB’s writing, “You’re not in any way if you think Carson Wentz can’t dance because of this season.”
Are we?
Carson Wentz hasn’t played in every game and he yet has thrown more interceptions in 2020. He has been sacked 10 times more than any other NFL QB and has the second-lowest quarterback ranking behind Sam Darnold. Yes, it’s only one season. But it’s especially bad for Wentz.
As uncomfortable as it may be, Carson Wentz will be a secondary quarterback for the rest of the year.
Who knows, he could also be on the bench in 2021.
