The latest about the Eagles, Carson Wentz

Before the Super Bowl, I heard that a Carson Wentz trade could be imminent. However, the Eagles are not close to reaching an agreement with any of the interested teams at the moment, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL.com (on Twitter).

The Bears and Colts are among the teams looking at number 11, but the other clubs involved remain a mystery. It is believed that the other teams that missed the new starter Rams Matthew Stafford could entertain Wentz – this list includes the Broncos, Panthers and 49ers. Of course, the Panthers and Broncos would prefer a deal for Deshaun Watson, if Texans can work up to a reasonable question. One of these two players will probably be the next domino to fall into the QB carousel.

Colts, who just lost Philip Rivers until retirement, it would be a logical fit for Wentz. Wentz, meanwhile, wouldn’t mind reuniting with his former mentor Frank Reich.

Publicly, the Eagles have said they would like to move on with Wentz, but the North Dakota state product still wants to come out. Any team that will take him over would also have to take on the considerable contract, which lasts until 2024. However, there is an escape hatch after the 2022 season, which helps somewhat. In any case, the Eagles will not be able to match the Stafford package of two first-round picks and a third rounder. Stafford, at this point, has more attraction, and the Lions have taken over Jared GoffStrong contract to get all this capital project.
