Eagles news: 5 Reactions to Carson Wentz’s recent OTA press conference

1. The plan is not to wear the knee brace.

Remember when we told you that Wentz was going to need to wear a knee brace for the remainder of his career? Well, who knows what happened recently, but now, that doesn’t seem to be the case any more, at least not in Wentz’s eyes. QB1 tossed the knee brace to the side on Tuesday and replied ‘that’s the plan’ when he was asked about him not wearing it during the regular season.

Are we to stand up and cheer, or is this prematurely throwing caution to the wind.

2. There’s a bond building with ’11’ and ’10’.

Social media was set on fire on Tuesday with a tweet of ’11’ hitting DeSean Jackson. Eagles fans can put their minds at ease seeing as how Wentz and pretty much every other teammate Jackson has ever said seems to be very complimentary about the former and current Eagles wide receiver’s team-first attitude.

It’s nice to hear good things said about a guy when he’s an all-around good dude. It’s nice to hear things are going well in the locker room.

Oh, and by the way, we saved the tweet.

Looking good guys!

3. There’s a Wentz-Foles type bond building with ’11’ and Nate Sudfeld.

According to Wentz he and Foles have talked ‘here and there’ during the offseason. Wentz is self-admittedly ‘wired’. Foles, as you may have guessed is more ‘laid back’, so, to put things into Wentz’s words, there was great balance between the two.

‘Number 9’ is no longer in the locker room, so the second quarterback on Philly’s depth chart is officially Nate Sudfeld. He and Wentz haved picked up where ‘9’ left off. They like each other. They’re like minded. There seems to be a new bond building with Press Taylor in the QB film room.
