The Washington Commanders released Carson Wentz on Monday afternoon after just one season. This is a somewhat surprising move as the Commanders don’t have a real plan at the quarterback position, but with Washington drafting quarterback Sam Howell late in last years draft he made some big plays in his short time starting.
The former number two overall pick in the 2016 draft by the Philadelphia Eagles, Wentz spent five seasons with the Eagles before getting traded to the Indianapolis Colts in which he played one season with the Colts and then was traded to the Commanders last offseason.
Carson Wentz is seen as a high upside player with a low floor and given week as most teams see him as a potential pro bowl player like he was in Philadelphia but ever since that 2017 season, Wentz hasn’t been the same and could never get back to being that borderline MVP player before getting injured late into the season. Some believe Wentz won’t get back to being a starter and is potentially out of the league after this Commanders stint has come to an end.
