Eagles name Carson Wentz Week 1 starter
Philadelphia Eagles first-round quarterback Carson Wentz was named the starter for Week 1 by head coach Doug Pederson.
What It Means:
Per Pederson, Wentz has fully recovered from the rib injury he suffered during his first preseason action. The second overall pick took every snap with the Eagles' first-team offense at practice on Monday. Wentz logged a total of 38 snaps in the preseason, but his Week 1 matchup with the Cleveland Browns is appealing, so he's a great value play for DFS. For now, the rookie is likely only on the season-long radar in two-QB formats.
Our models haven't heard the news yet regarding Wentz in Week 1, but the Eagles offense ranked 23rd in Passing Adjusted Net Expected Points per play last season.
