Carson Wentz Could Be Cleared Next Week
6 years agoPhiladelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (knee) could be cleared for contact as early as this week, but that doesn't mean he'll be allowed to play in Week 3. The Eagles aren't in a rush to get Wentz onto the field in games. It might take another few weeks before Wentz makes his season debut. "He probably will come back stronger and better than ever," Adam Dedeaux, Wentz's LA-based mechanics coach at 3DQB, told NFL.com. "He's way ahead of everything, in part because he's such a freak athlete. As he's gotten healthy, it's been abundantly clear he's dedicated himself to the process. Even he's surprised himself at how well the ball is coming out. The metrics the coaches around him are getting, it's a tighter spin. He's doing great." This isn't what Wentz owners in single-year leagues want to hear, but they must be patient. As long as Wentz is out, Nick Foles will be an option in two-QB leagues.
