Carson Wentz’s Injury History

Last Modified Jan 10, 2024 04:36 GMT

After playing for three different NFL teams, Caron Wentz is presently a free agent. When the Philadelphia Eagles selected Carson in the 2016 NFL Draught, he went on to defeat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl and garnered several awards.

The 2017 season, when the Eagles went on an 11-2 record and finally won the Super Bowl, was Wentz's greatest season. Because of Carson's injury, which has kept him from realizing his full potential, the Eagles eventually traded him to the Indianapolis Colts and subsequently to the Washington Commanders.

Carson has also received second-team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors. Nobody predicted that Carson would not be in the NFL after bringing the Eagles their first-ever title.
