Read more "Instant analysis: Jalen Reagor to miss significant time with UCL tear"Carson Wentz is not fully to blame for the Eagles abysmal 2020 start. Howie Roseman’s abysmal track record is horrendous. Doug Pederson’s comments and adjustments have been mind-boggling. Carson Wentz’s performance hasn’t helped though.
