Dealt to Indianapolis
The Eagles have agreed to trade Wentz to the Colts on Thursday in exchange for a 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 second-round selection, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The conditional pick becomes a first-rounder if Wentz plays three-quarters of the Colts' offensive snaps in 2021. Multiple reports suggested Indianapolis was the 28-year-old QB's preferred destination, offering the opportunity to reunite with head coach Frank Reich, formerly the offensive coordinator in Philadelphia. The Colts also have a solid defense and a top-five offensive line, though their receiving corps could use some help, especially if T.Y. Hilton (free agent) isn't re-signed.…read more

Likely to be traded in coming days
The Eagles are expected to trade Wentz as soon as this week, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The notion of trading Wentz has picked up significant steam following the Rams' acquisition of Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford as the Eagles are reportedly looking for a similar sort of package that saw the Lions acquire two first-round picks, a third-round pick and Jared Goff in the massive deal. While it seems unlikely a team will be willing to deal that sort of compensation for Wentz, particularly after a year in which the 28-year-old led the league in interceptions despite playing 12…read more

Discussed in trade talks
The Eagles don't necessarily plan to trade Wentz, but they have been fielding some trade calls, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: While a change of scenery would seem to make sense for both parties, the Eagles could still decide to keep Wentz if they aren't thrilled with the trade offers. New head coach Nick Sirianni didn't say much about the team's QB situation during his intro press conference, though he did seem to acknowledge the uncertainty surrounding Wentz's future. If the 28-year-old quarterback stays in Philadelphia, he'll presumably have to battle Jalen Hurts for the starting job. Potential trade fits include…read more

Taking seat Sunday
Wentz (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday versus Washington.
Analysis: As expected, Wentz is a healthy scratch for the Eagles' regular-season finale. Jalen Hurts will continue to direct Philadelphia's offense, with Nate Sudfeld backing him up. Wentz will enter the offseason with a cloud hanging over his head after falling apart enough to force the hand of coach Doug Pederson. Overall, Wentz had career lows in completion percentage (57), passing yards (2,620) and touchdown passes (16) while notching career highs in interceptions (15) and rushing TDs (five).

In line for DNP on Sunday
The Eagles are expected to make Wentz a healthy scratch Sunday against Washington, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Change has been in the wind since the Eagles benched Wentz in favor of rookie second-round pick Jalen Hurts back in Week 13. Wentz has served as Hurts' backup in each of the last three games, but now the team will keep the veteran in street clothes in the season finale while fellow reserve QB Nate Sudfeld takes his spot on the active roster. Garafolo noted the impending move doesn't necessarily mean the situation between Wentz and Philly isn't salvageable, and the team "wants" the quarterback…read more

Still part of team's plans
Though Wentz will back up rookie QB Jalen Hurts in Sunday's game against the Saints, the Eagles "still have every intention to keep Wentz and have him be a major part of their team," according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Analysis: In the wake of Wentz's struggles this season, the 3-8-1 Eagles -- who've dropped four straight games -- elected to turn to Hurts (the No. 53 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft) in Week 14. That said, Schefter suggests the team still believes that down the road Wentz can return to his prior level of play. In any case, a decision on the signal-caller's future with the franchise is slated to arrive by the second day of the 2021 league year (in March), when Wentz's $22 million base salary for 2022…read more

Moving into backup role
Wentz will move into a backup role for Sunday's game against the Saints after head coach Doug Pederson named Jalen Hurts the team's starting quarterback for Week 14, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Wentz will cede his spot atop the depth chart to the rookie after he again struggled to move the offense in last week's loss to the Packers, which dropped the Eagles to 3-8-1 on the season. The demotion suddenly leaves Wentz's future with the organization in question, an improbable development after the signal-caller inked a four-year, $128 million extension in 2019 that won't even kick in until next season. Wentz ranks last among all qualified passers this season with 15 interceptions thrown…read more

May not start Week 14
Speaking on the radio Monday morning, coach Doug Pederson said he hasn't made up his mind on starting Wentz or Jalen Hurts for Week 14 against the Saints, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: Pederson brought in Hurts during the third quarter of Sunday's 30-16 loss to Green Bay, leaving Wentz on the sideline for the final four drives of the game. The Eagles made a contest of it in the fourth quarter, but that was largely based on Jalen Reagor's punt-return touchdown, while the offense put up points on just one of four drives with Hurts at quarterback. Pederson won't necessarily announce it to the media once he decides on a Week 14 starter, but we should have some idea before the…read more

Benched at Lambeau
Wentz completed six of 15 passes for 79 yards and carried the ball three times for 15 yards before being replaced by Jalen Hurts in Sunday's 30-16 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: With the Eagles' offense producing only a field goal in the first half, Wentz found himself on the bench after another three-and-out to begin the third quarter. While Hurts completed less than 50 percent of his own attempts, he did inject some life into Philly's passing game and hit Greg Ward for the team's only offensive TD of the day. It's not clear yet who Doug Pederson will name as his starting QB for Week 14, but whoever is under center will face a very tough test against the Saints.

Struggles in another defeat
Wentz completed 25 of 45 passes for 215 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Monday night's 23-17 loss to the Seahawks. He also rushed five times for 42 yards.
Analysis: Wentz was once again inefficient in the passing game -- no wideout had more than two catches -- and he was sacked another six times. The quarterback also threw his 15th interception of the season, a red-zone pick in the fourth quarter. On the bright side, he did find tight end Dallas Goedert for a three-yard score earlier, and lucked into a touchdown on a 33-yard heave in the game's waning moments. Wentz also added decent value on the ground, rushing for his third-most yards in a game this…read more

May lose work to Hurts
Wentz remains in line to start Monday's game against the Seahawks, but backup Jalen Hurts is expected to receive increased playing time at quarterback during the contest, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Rapoport notes that "unlike previous snaps, Wentz won't be on the field" when Hurts checks into the contest. Tim McManus of ESPN.com relays that Hurts has been seeing increased first-team reps at practice of late, which Rapoport suggests will result in Hurts seeing his "most significant snaps yet," likely "two or three plays at a time," rather than entire series. The Eagles' approach to their quarterback situation could be altered based on the flow of Monday's game, but coach Doug Peterson…read more

No threat of benching yet
Coach Doug Pederson said he hasn't considered benching Wentz, according to Zach Berman of The Athletic.
Analysis: Wentz has tossed a league-worst 14 interceptions, including two in Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Browns. It's also been nearly two months since he completed more than 60 percent of his passes in a game, with his accuracy remaining poor even as the Eagles have gotten a little bit healthier on offense. It's possible second-round pick Jalen Hurts eventually get a shot if Wentz's struggles continue, but there's no question the veteran will make another start Week 12 in a favorable matchup with the…read more

Commits two turnovers vs. Browns
Wentz completed 21 of 35 passes for 235 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions during Sunday's 22-17 loss to the Browns. He also carried three times for an additional 10 yards.
Analysis: Wentz averaged an underwhelming 6.7 yards per attempt while taking five sacks and throwing multiple interceptions for the sixth time this season. He threw touchdown passes to Richard Rodgers and Dallas Goedert to round out his fantasy line, but his team never really had a chance to win as the latter score came with just 30 seconds left on the clock. Wentz now has an unsightly TD:INT of 14:14 through 10 games and, although he's added five rushing scores, he's had a rather disappointing season…read more

Fails to move offense
Wentz completed 21 of his 37 pass attempts for 208 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 10 against the Giants.
Analysis: Even with the return of key offensive playmakers Miles Sanders and Alshon Jeffery, Wentz struggled to get the Eagles' offense moving. The offense mustered only two touchdowns in the game, one of which came on a 55-yard run by Boston Scott. When the ball was in his hands, Wentz appeared hesitant to target receivers down the field, completing only one pass of more than 20 yards.

Four turnovers, but gets win
Wentz completed 15 of 27 pass attempts for 123 yards, two touchdowns, two interceptions and two lost fumbles in Sunday's 23-9 win over Dallas.
Analysis: This was one of Wentz's worst performances from a statistical aspect -- he established a season low in yards and a season high in turnovers in one fell swoop. In fact, the offense's poor play kept an inept Dallas squad in the game far longer than they deserved to be. The 27-year-old finally got things going in the second half, putting the Eagles ahead for good with a couple of well-placed balls to the end zone. The Eagles have a bye week coming up, which will should allow some of the club's…read more

Leads furious comeback
Wentz completed 25 of 43 passes for 359 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Eagles' 22-21 win over the Giants on Thursday night. He also rushed seven times for 14 yards and another score.
Analysis: Down 21-10 after a Sterling Shepard TD reception with 6:17 remaining, the Eagles found themselves in a similar position to that of a narrow Week 6 loss to the Ravens that saw them nearly pull off a comeback from a two-possession deficit. Wentz quickly went to work, driving his team 78 yards in just four plays, a march highlighted by a 59-yard completion to rookie John Hightower. On Philadelphia's next possession, Wentz capped off a six-play, 71-yard drive with a perfectly thrown 18-yard scoring…read more

Nearly leads improbable comeback
Wentz completed 21 of 40 passes for 213 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Eagles' 30-28 loss to the Ravens on Sunday. He also rushed five times for 49 yards and another score, lost a fumble and completed a pair of two-point conversion passes.
Analysis: Rarely does a quarterback look as ragged as Wentz did and yet come as close as overcoming the 17- and 18-point deficits he almost helped the Eagles erase Sunday. However, that's exactly what unfolded, with Wentz and his teammates admirably refusing to quit and putting a legitimate scare into the Ravens until a would-be game-tying two-point conversion attempt went awry for Philadelphia. Wentz had put his team in that position by leading three 70-yard-plus scoring marches in the fourth quarter,…read more

Uneven performance
Wentz completed 20 of 35 passes for 258 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 5 against the Steelers. He also chipped in 11 rushing yards.
Analysis: Wentz threw a pair of costly interceptions late in the game but put forth a valiant comeback effort. Working with backup receivers, Wentz managed touchdown tosses of eight and four yards to record his third multi-touchdown performance of the season. He also surpassed seven yards per attempt for the first time in the campaign, helped by six passes of more than 15 yards. Wentz will face a tough Week 6 matchup against the Ravens, but he may have one or both of Alshon Jeffery (ankle/illness) and…read more

Leads team to first win
Wentz completed 18 of 28 pass attempts for 193 yards, a touchdown and an interception while rushing seven times for 37 yards and another touchdown in Sunday's 25-20 win over San Francisco.
Analysis: It wasn't pretty -- Wentz was consistently under duress behind a shoddy offensive line -- but he was able to will his team to its first victory of the season. The 27-year-old has an ugly 4:7 TD:INT ratio through four games, but he has salvaged some fantasy value with 111 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns. Wentz's struggles can't be solely placed on him, as he has had little help in terms of talent on the outside and a banged-up offensive line, but excuses don't result in more fantasy…read more

Won't be benched
Coach Doug Pederson said it would be a "knee jerk-reaction" to bench Wentz in favor of Jalen Hurts, Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Analysis: The terminology is debatable, considering the Eagles now have a three-game sample of Wentz putting up poor numbers while the team struggles to score points. Of course, injuries to the offensive line and core group of skill-position players have been a big factor, with seven projected starters on offense missing time at some point this year. The Eagles won't bench Wentz before a Week 4 matchup with the similarly injury-marred 49ers, but it could become a discussion later in the season if his…read more

Picked twice, but rushing improves
Wentz was 29-for-47 passing with 225 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Sunday's 23-23 tie with Cincinnati. He also registered 65 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries.
Analysis: Wentz remains uninspiring as a passer through the first three outings of his fifth NFL campaign, with a sub-60 percent completion rate and a woeful 3:6 TD:INT. His fantasy day was salvaged by way of rushing production, however, as Wentz established a new career high in yardage on the ground.

Struggles continue in blowout loss
Wentz completed 26 of 43 pass attempts for 242 yards and two interceptions in the Eagles' 37-19 loss to the Rams on Sunday.
Analysis: He added seven yards on two carries. The Eagles are now 0-2 after back-to-back losses to the Washington Football Team and Rams, and Wentz has not been productive. After being sacked eight times in Week 1, his offensive line gave up no sacks to Aaron Donald and Co., yet Wentz was unable to get anything going in this one. Philly will look to get back on track next week as the schedule lightens up in an easier matchup with Cincinnati that could be a get-right spot for the Philadelphia offense.

Struggles in loss to Washington
Wentz completed 24 of 42 pass attempts for 270 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 27-17 loss to Washington. He also lost a fumble.
Analysis: Wentz started strong in this one, throwing a touchdown pass to Zach Ertz on the opening drive and adding another to Dallas Goedert to put his side up 17-0 in the second quarter. He struggled from that point on, however, as the ferocious Washington pass rush resulted in eight sacks and three turnovers to turn the game on its head in the second half.

Meanwhile, the O-line is front of him has been reshuffled due to season-ending injuries to LT Andre Dillard and RG Brandon Brooks, who have been replaced by Jason Peters and a player to be named later, respectively.

Injury isn't 'major'
Coach Doug Pederson called Wentz's lower-body issue "nothing major," Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Wentz has been sitting out since Sunday with what is termed a minor soft-tissue injury. The Eagles deem him day-to-day, and Pederson even added Tuesday that it's a "good week" for Wentz to rest, as he typically wouldn't suit up during preseason Week 4 under normal circumstances.

On top of that, his starting left tackle (Andre Dillard) and starting right guard (Brandon Brooks) have…read more

However, they haven't been able to avoid the more serious issues, with starting LT Andre Dillard (biceps) and starting RG Brandon Brooks (Achilles) both set to miss the entire season.

Analysis: Wentz went to the locker room in the first half after being driven into the turf by Seahawks defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, and his day is done. Josh McCown will fulfill quarterback duties for the remainder of the contest. If the Eagles win, Wentz will aim to get healthy for next Sunday's divisional-round matchup versus the Packers.

Wentz is being evaluated for a head injury during Sunday's wild-card game versus the Seahawks.
Analysis: Wentz was driven into the turf by Seahawks pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney in the first quarter, with his upper back and head taking the brunt of the punishment. Because Wentz was wobbly as he got to his feet, a neurologist alerted the Eagles to a potential head injury. If he enters the NFL's concussion protocol, Wentz will yield QB duties to veteran Josh McCown for the rest of this contest.

Steady in Sunday's win
Wentz completed 23 of 40 passes for 289 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-17 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Boston Scott ended up being the hero of the Eagles' division-clinching win, but Wentz was steady in guiding the club into the playoffs. The fourth-year QB finishes the regular season with a career-high 4,039 passing yards -- an amazing total, considering all the injuries Philadelphia has had to deal with at wide receiver and tight end -- and a 27:7 TD:INT, but even on home turf he'll face a tough test in the wild-card round next weekend against the Seahawks.

The fourth-year QB topped 300 passing yards for the third time in the last four games, a feat he managed only twice in the first 11 contests this season, and Wentz's improved play has the Eagles on the brink of an NFC East title.

To his credit, Wentz rallied when it mattered most, engineering a comeback victory with a couple two-yard touchdown tosses to Zach Ertz. Thanks to his late-game execution, Wentz was able to top 300 yards for the second straight week and now approaches Week 15's matchup against Washington with consecutive multi-touchdown games as well.

Throws three TDs in Week 13 loss

Analysis: The 26-year-old signal-caller finally got things going from a statistical perspective Week 13, accounting for multiple TD throws and eclipsing the 260-yard passing mark for the first time in his past six outings.

Wentz (right hand) practiced in full Wednesday.
Analysis: Wentz went to the locker during Sunday's loss to the Seahawks for what was later revealed to be an injury to his throwing hand, which was covered in a heavy wrap after the game. On Monday, coach Doug Pederson said Wentz had a bruise but wasn't expected to miss any time in practice this week, according to Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News. With a full session under his belt Wednesday, Wentz is well on his way to upholding Pederson's prediction as the Eagles prepare for a Week 13 visit…read more

Dealing with minor bruise
Coach Doug Pederson said that Wentz is tending to a bruise on his throwing hand, but the quarterback isn't expected to miss any practice time as a result and should be ready to play this weekend against the Dolphins, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.
Analysis: In the aftermath of Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Seahawks, Wentz was spotted with a wrap around his right hand, signaling some level of worry about his health. Pederson's comments should alleviate those concerns, but Wentz will retain an injury designation for the time being until he presumably practices Wednesday as a full participant. The minor hand issue coupled with a depleted pass-catching corps missing top wideouts Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) proved to be major obstacles…read more

Has heavy wrap on right hand
Wentz left the locker room with his right throwing hand in a heavy wrap following Sunday's 17-9 loss to the Seahawks, Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice.com reports.
Analysis: Wentz visited the sideline tent and then the locker room in the second half but returned to action and completed the contest. His line was less than efficient -- 33-for-45 passing for 256 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions -- and he also lost two of his three fumbles on the day. Afterward, coach Doug Pederson told Mike Kaye of The Newark Star-Ledger that Wentz had an X-ray on his hand, which came back negative. Expect Wentz to undergo further examination in the coming days, and there…read more

Another poor performance
Wentz completed 33 of 45 passes for 256 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in the team's Week 12 loss to the Seahawks. He also added five rushes for 27 yards.
Analysis: Wentz went into the game short-handed, lacking multiple key receiving options in Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee). He struggled to work down the field in their absence, as he managed just 5.7 yards per attempt -- his second consecutive game under six yards -- despite completing 73 percent of his throws. Wentz himself was also battling injury, as he received an X-ray on his hand after the game, as reported by Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia. Though the…read more

Stymied by Patriots
Wentz completed 20 of 40 passes for 214 yards and a touchdown while adding 17 rushing yards on three carries in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: The Eagles weren't having much success moving the ball early, but the offense really stagnated after right tackle Lane Johnson was knocked out of the game with a head injury, and Wentz ended up taking five sacks on the afternoon while posting a season low in completion percentage. The 26-year-old QB hasn't topped 240 passing yards or thrown multiple TDs in any of the last four games, and if Johnson's injury keeps him sidelined in Week 12, Wentz could be in for further struggles against the…read more

Held to 6.1 yards per attempt
Wentz completed 26 of 39 pass attempts for 239 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 22-14 win over the Bears. He also carried four times for 15 yards.
Analysis: While Wentz completed 67 percent of his passes, he was held mostly to short connections and finished averaging a lackluster 6.1 yards per attempt. He connected with Zach Ertz for a 25-yard touchdown in the second quarter, flashing a glimpse of the connection that made both players effective fantasy options in seasons past. Wentz also avoided throwing an interception for the second straight game, but after the bye week he'll face a tough matchup against the Patriots.
